I like all of them but watermelon is my least favorite. Canteloupe is the winner. It's so milky and just sweet enough but still refreshing.

Good vitamin a and c content.

Slice the seeds off it before you eat it.

Nice on a hot summer day as a cold snack.

Tastes way better when in season.

I've never bought one I liked. When you grow them yourself you can smell them when they get perfectly ripe from across the yard. Melons and watermelon are awesome.

I worked for a Chinese family that would absolutely DESTROY watermelon when they were in season. They'd buy a huge one every day and finish the entire thing in one sitting. I wonder if that's a Chinese thing, or just them?

One day last summer I ran 8 miles over the course of 2 hours around my campus, in sweltering heat. I didn't bring a water bottle or anything on my run.

When I got home, steam was almost billowing off of me. I opened my fridge and was confronted with a pre-cut ice cold organic watermelon.

I ate that watermelon. I ate it and I cried. It was one of the best things I've ever had in my life.

Fuck that shit. Totally ruined fruit.

I bought a tasty fruit thing at a fair once, thinking it would be really refreshing and they fucking covered it in this shit and ruined the whole thing. Fucking Mexicans setting up shop in my 99% white town selling trash fruit salad. So many pineapples in the trash, wasted. Why would you want to cover your sweet delicious fruit in bitter salt?
