Watermelon

[chic]

How do you like yours? In slices? Chunks? In fruit salad? In a smoothie? Iced in a cup? Intrvenously?

Make mine in chunks with sprinkles of fresh mint. Ooh la la.

Don't like any sort of melons, they give me indigestion.

I like watermelon pure and simple but when I do fancy, I like chunks with slices of kiwi and a few fresh blueberries.

 

[SifuPhil]

I don't like watermelon - too much work for too little reward.

 

[Bullie76]

Chunks mixed in with other melon chunks.

seedless

I'm not picky about how it's sliced. I just love watermelon! :watermelon:

Cold. And handed to me while I lounge in a hammock in the shade. Thanks.

There is the old joke about the farmer who was tired of having his watermelons stolen, so he put up a sign that said "WARNING. ONE OF THESE WATERMELONS HAS BEEN POISONED!"

The next day, he walked out to his field to find written on his sign: "NOW IT'S TWO OF THEM!"

LOVE watermelon, however it's served. I prefer the ones with seeds; it seems to me they are sweeter.

Love it, cut and peel into small chunks, ready to snack on anytime.

Yes, I've noticed that too, sweeter, crunchier, juicier...so I always buy it with seeds.

I love watermelon but the ones we get here, from Spain I think, are not very good. So I catch up when I get to Michigan and eat tons of seedless ones.

 

[SeaBreeze]

I like to cut mine in cubes and put it in a tupperware container in the fridge, usually get seedless.

You trying to tell us something?

I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking watermelon with seeds are sweeter, crunchier, juicier.

And how do I especially like to eat watermelon? ... same as I did when I was a kid ... a slice to bury my face in!! :glee:

In San Diego back in the 60's there was a stripper who had huge ads advertising her appearances. Her "stage" name was "watermelon Rose".

I love the yellow water mellons that show up occasionally.
They seem sweeter to me and pretty, too.

Yes . . . I remember hearing about her when I first came to San Diego. :watermelon:

We buy the round dark green ones called Sugar Babies. They are seedless and normally very sweet. They have to be ripe or I don't eat them, especially some that taste like eating the rind. Yuck! My wife cuts them into chunks and I can eat a half of one for lunch without fear of gaining any weight.

I could handle watermelon with blueberries just fine. Great combo Lara.

 

[RadishRose]

Agree with prefering the seeded kind, they are tastier. The "seedless" actually have teeny tiny little white "seeds" that seem to taste a little bitter. I've been wanting to try a watermelon salad that has chunks of feta cheese and also mint.

Any color, any type, cut anyway....
