We have lots of water melon here in my country specially when it's summer time. Very good when having heat outside. But it's rainy season now and I don't feel eating when the weather is cold.

I have not bought any watermelon this year. We get it at work so I eat it there. We finally got some great watermelon in recently! I only like watermelon that way and cold! I am big on eating it in summer! When it is out of season,no way!

Celtice, we like eating watermelon especially those seedless ones. But, the price is much more expensive than those with seeds. Since my child prefer the seedless one, so usually i will buy it. It is very juicy and delicious. Deep pink colored flesh are the most delicious ones especially after you had refrigerated them for a while. But, my child prefer to eat watermelon without putting it into the refrigerator.

Hi friend, i like to take water melon in the summer days, it gives more coolness and reduce our thirst. Also i like to take fresh juices like sugarcane juice, grape juice with out any artificial concentrations.

Do you mean cantaloupe? They are actually my favorite. My daughter is the one that likes the watermelon.

Yes it is like my husband is addicted to not only coffee but watermelon as well. The last two that I bought from Wal Mart were really good and ripe but I ado remember the one before that I had bought from aldis was not that good.

I've had watermelon but only to make water out of. Actually, no, my sister did buy two small ones like a week apart and I had a bit of both. Though when I've bought for myself I've gotten the precut ones and put it in the blender with some sugar, water and ice cubes to make myself some watermelon water.
I've been todl they are great this year (the watermelons).

It is nice to get the precut ones so you can see if they are the deep pink of a good melon.

We are lucky to have alot of fruit stands in our areas and can get them rather cheaply.

hi dear celticeagle, summer has just started, not only on the calendar but also regarding the temperatures so for the lucky ones who can have watermelon there still is a lot of time to get it and enjoy it.
I didnt have any yet and I guess I wont cause they have these quick carbs which will spike the blood glucose to no end so I dont eat them any more.
My personal favorites are the yellow watermelons. They taste much better than the red ones but are hard to find.

Its in full swing here. I do like to wait until the last of the summer for better flavor and ripeness. We are getting some good ones now though. I am glad I can enjoy such things and sorry you can't.

i love watermelon i but the honey dew watermelons every year because they taste so nice, in my country watermelon can be expensive because it doesnt grow here.

There is watermelon, honey dew melon and cantaloupe. I like most. I hope you find some that isn't too expensive.

Too bad you can't buy it out of season. It would be cheaper.

Cantaloupes are really nice, even though there expensive some things are worth paying extra for

Well i dont like watermelons at all. But it is good to see people gorging on watermelons on the streets whenever it is summer.
