SC - selecting fruits and vegetables

[Branwen]

Is iceburg lettuce period? Even if it's not, here's a tip: don't go by the
"heavy for its size" rule when dealing with lettuce. Heads of lettuce should
be light - if they're not, they're probably full of bitter, white-and-yellow
icky parts. The good leaves weigh a lot less than the bad ones.

And someone already mentioned how to choose a melon, but I just need to say
that melon season is my absolute favorite. The produce section gets pretty
musical when I'm around. :)
