A melon should be firm to the touch. You should be able to press firmly at the end and it might just give a little. If it is soft it might be just over-ripe, but if it is too soft, or has mold on it, then that's the sign that the melon has gone bad.

∙ 14y agoYou can generally tell the quality of an apple from its feel and appearance.
- If it is looking dull and shriveled or has sunken areas, bruises or spots of mold, then it is not good.
- If you heft it and it heavy for its size, that means it should be juicy.
- If the apple feels hard and doesn't yield under light fingertip pressure, that should mean it is crisp.
