I do...although I don't buy em unless we're grilling out.  They take up so much stinken' room and my lil' family of four only eat 1/2 at a time.  I really enjoy watermelon smoothies with lemon sorbet.  It's the best way I've found to use the picked over melon.  I vaguely remember the flavor of fully seeded watermelons... so I'm very much appreciative of the seedless variety.

I really like watermelon a lot  It is sweet and refreshing.  Very yummy.  I wish I were better at picking them out but none the less eat watermelon a lot sometimes I buy it already cut up at my grocery store.

Watermelon, no matter which way you "cut" it, is terrific.  It's thirst quenching, tastes delicious and is very enjoyable!

Watermelon is wonderful when it is fresh and sweet. They're pretty cheap right now too and I need to get another one.

I have heard they are quite good for your health as well. I was told by a 93-year-old woman that her doctor told her to eat it every day.

Yes, I like watermelon, it's the perfect fruit when you're hungry and...thirsty. I like mine chilled before eating. :thumbsup:

love watermelon...I don't carve or slice it per say.  I peel mine.  Cut away the rind so that the inside of the watermelon is a big ball then just cut it into slices on a cutting board and put the slices into a bowl.  It makes it a lot easier that way.

I eat it sometimes but just for health reasons.  I don't really like any fruit, watermelon included.

Is my favorite fruit but cannot get it all year round in the Midwest and when it available in the winter months it not as good and way to expensive since it really only sold by the slice.

Yeah, I love a good watermelon but I feel like I'm gambling when I try to choose one.  It's nice when I get "lucky" and learn that the one I chose is perfectly ripe.

One great thing about watermelon is that.....

it's a source of lycopene; which is, an important nutrient.  Tomatoes are the other produce that's a source of lycopene.
Have a great day!
