There they were, cut in halves and quarters next to the red ones, looking like they belonged. So I bought a half, for fun, and now I'm glad I did.

If I'm not mistaken we were still in Jerusalem, I bought a watermelon to eat after 9th of Av fast. When I opened it, I discovered that it was yellow and was so traumatized that I threw it out. I complained to the storeekeeper who told me that it was a novelty, something special. I haven't had an opportunity to try once since. Decades ago, I think.

You could find them at a lot of Korean produce markets and especially Chinatown. I found they were less tasty then the red kind but maybe they've improved.
