Melon is very watery and too much will give a poodle diarrhea. But if given in a small amount, it probably won't hurt. Definitely do not let it eat the rind though.

How many sugars in watermelon vodka?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some flavored vodkas add sugar and some do not. Purists consider flavored vodkas to really be liqueurs by definition, but marketing efforts and consumer tastes suggest that there is a bit of a grey area.There are two main types of flavored vodka: Infused and Compounded.To create an infused vodka, one must soak the flavor source (the fruit, vegetables, berries etc.) in the base spirit for a period of time and then redistill it. This captures the essence of the flavor, but leaves the solids (chunks of fruit, color, etc.) behind thus yielding a clear spirit.In contrast, compounded vodkas are most likely to have a flavored sugar syrup added to the base spirit for flavoring.In order to divine which product has sugar while you are shopping at your local liquor store, you need merely to look at the label. Infused vodkas typically will be bottled at a full 80 proof (40% alcohol). Compounded flavored vodkas will usually be 70 proof (35% alcohol) because they have been diluted by sugary flavoring agents. Please note that this is a general rule and there may be some exceptions.Examples of infused vodkas are Absolut, Effen, and Ketel One.Some recognizable compounded vodka brands are Stolichnya, Finlandia and Pinnacle.

Can watermelon go bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I learned from a Central American woman who was slapping the watermelons one by one. I asked her "What sound are you looking for"? and she shown me how to choose them.

The higher the pitch/tone, the better. She told me to avoid the lower pitch/tones, like the ones you hear when something is hollow.

I haven't taken the time to relate it to any characteristic of the inside, but I have been doing so for the last 20 watermelons, and I haven't gotten one tasteless, bad or wrong again.

Someone else wrote here: always buy watermelon that is a deep dark green, the better the green on the outside the brighter red on the inside. Yellow or light green or a soft rind is never a good sign. Once you cut into the watermelon you will easily tell if its bad or not. First the smell will be sweet but slightly sickly sweet. The taste will be ok at first but quickly turn on you, often an sharp or tingly sensation on your tongue is a sure sign its bad, and lastly the juice. Juice will not be the usual dark pink or even red and will be light possibly with abrownish pink color and will have dark red pulp. A ripe melon should never have pulp or atleast ever have pulp darker than the juice.

What temperature preserves watermelon?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The answer to this question depends upon which fruit you are talking about and whether you are the harvester, shipper, grocery store or consumer. Let's guess you are the consumer. . . .

  • Buy only enough fruit to last for a few days
  • All cut fruit should be kept refrigerated since they would be considered potentially hazardous.
  • Whole fruits like apples, pears and oranges can generally be stored unrefrigerated for a couple days, but refrigerate them if you want them to last longer. I like pears softer, so I let them ripen a couple days at room temperature, then refrigerate.
  • Bananas are generally not refrigerated. If my bunch ripens too fast, I peel and freeze them for smoothies.
  • Softer and smaller fruits, like strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and grapes are usually kept refrigerated. Even refrigerated, they can mold in a couple days - but sometimes that is because they are old by the time they get to your store.
  • Stone fruits, like peaches, plums and nectarines, will not ripen under refrigeration. I allow mine to ripen at room temperature, then refrigerate to keep them for a few more days.
