I miss spiting the seeds at my sister. Being a female, she just didn't know how to spit seeds the right way.

Seedless watermelons? No way!

Can’t remember the last time I had watermelon with seeds!

Simply Watermelon is good IMO, with Smirnoff Infusions watermelon/mint (a weak flavored vodka) is my wife’s summer drink.

Watermelon mojitos could turn me into a drinker. They are delicious.

My favorite way to have watermelon is with Feta cheese, as the Greeks do. That is heavenly to me.

Zalco, I love it with Feta, too. That sweet/salty is so good!

We've been munching on some great (seedless) watermelon lately.

I saw this post on FB the other day and need to look at it the next time I buy a watermelon.

Is spitting seeds one of those arcane ancient father to son secrets? :)

Feta cheese

How is that? (going to put feta on shopping list)

Sometimes (later in the summer) HEB has Sugar Babies (personal watermelon). If you get a chance, try those. They are my absolute favorite.

I love watermelon but not watermelon flavored things. I think they're gross. I have one melon plant I need to get into the garden and several coming up on their own in the back garden. I have no idea what variety the volunteers are. I am growing a little variety called Sorbet.

I adore watermelon so you can commiserate with me that I cant eat it any more. I would feel too full and swollen and then I started to vomit after eating it. HOW did this happen to me???? I ate it all my life and loved it. My Grannie used to grow it for us on the farm and it was a favorite treat for me-just throw the remains to the pigs. Like garlic and onion which I can also no longer eat, I have a bad reaction. In this case it seems it could be a food allergy vs a food intolerance. I am not happy.

I'm so sorry. Perhaps you will find a new taste sensation to make up for your loss?

Lucille, here is a recipe (hard to actually call it that, it's so simple.) I would suggest using Greek, Bulgarian or French feta.

I adore watermelon! I remember one year when I was a child, my mother and I were eating melon out in the side yard, next to the pool, and spit the seeds in the flowerbed along the pool fence. Well, they sprouted and grew to cover the entire side yard! We had watermelons enough to share with all the neighbors.

I learned to eat my watermelon with salt, from the German neighbors. To this day I am the only one in my family that does so.

"How is that? (going to put feta on shopping list)"

Lucille, I copied the following link for you. There are different types of Feta...Greek, Bulgarian, and my favorite, French. French Feta's a bit creamier and less salty. I buy it in blocks in brine at a couple different specialty cheese places here. It's pretty tasty! Going to get more tomorrow. Some grocery stores have a better selection than others when it comes to good Feta. Just thought this link might be helpful. To me, a watermelon and feta salad is sweet, salty and refreshing.

oh I love watermelon. I had stated on this forum that shrimp was my favorite, hmmm, now I think it’s a tie with melon. Bought a watermelon two weeks ago. It was so good. Making a grocery list now , going to order 2 tonight.

I put seeded cucumbers in with my watermelon feta salad. So refreshing.

I love watermelon, but I haven’t been able to find a nice juicy sweet one in a long time. The grocery stores here only sell seedless ones. I love watermelon bubble tea made with fresh watermelon and not with the powdered flavour watermelon.

im going to try the watermelon feta salad, that looks delicious.

Lucille, I like the flavor of this one.

When the farmers trucks start coming in with water melon headed to the farmer's market, I buy straight off the truck.there Same for peaches

My mom told me how the stores would pull out a plug when she was little and my mom never lies. Anyone else and I would of doubted the story. But back then the watermelons didn't come from south America either.

My wife buys the things all winter and all have stickers telling you the country of origin. The last one was from Mexico and was horrible, so she took it back to Target for a refund. In fact most of the foreign grown melons she buys are bad and she just takes them back.

Look at the sticker, or take them back if they're bad. It would be easier if they would pull a plug and save us the time but things have changed.
