Once fruits such as watermelon, papaya, or melon are cut, the protective outer surface has been broken.

Refrigerate cut produce promptly rather than leaving a plate on the dining table for hours.

Keep it covered in a clean container and separate from raw meat and seafood.

This matters even when the whole uncut fruit was originally stored at room temperature.
