I’ll eat watermelon but I won’t spit the seeds. I prefer seedless. If it’s on sale, I’ll get a wedge, not a whole one.
Two things people used to do. Get a whole melon, cut a whole in the top, pour in a fifth of vodka, let it soak in overnight, then you have the makings for a party.
Another thing the old folks used to do was put salt on watermelon to bring out the flavor. This isn’t too far fetched. Certain fruits you can do this with, like bananas. Not for me, but to each his own.
But the one thing about watermelon, it has to be served cold. And even though they grow it up here, watermelon is mostly grown down South because the soil needs a certain amount of sand and moisture to grow. Same with pumpkins. Bet you didn’t know that.
