When I went to Mallorca with Bianca I rediscovered watermelon at breakfast.
It's not that common to eat it in the Netherlands I guess.
So when I went looking for it I did find it in the supermarket but a steep price.
You can buy it pre-cut (about 200g) in a plastic container for about $2.
But last week I found myself in a supermarket called Lidl.
And low and behold they had a whole box full of whole water melons for only $7 each.
I bought one and been amazed how much watermelon is in a watermelon :)
I've been stuffing my face (moderately) with it almost daily and still have half left.
It's fantastic eating it very cold in the current heatwave.
After doing some research I also found it's pretty healthy for you here.
Steemfat is going well.
I heard more than one person say my face looks a little thinner which I guess is a good sign.

Excellent purchase, my friend and you are absolutely right, you can eat a lot of watermelon in a strong heat, for example, with my family I will eat a whole watermelon of decent size in the heat and do not even notice, haha. In addition, you have found an excellent source of carbohydrates for training and as a source of moisture, it also fits perfectly. Well done! Thanks Mark

Yummy, water melon is very good for the body and contains about 90% water and also it works improving the cells and organs in the body and also it's good taken cold because of the heatwave Currently occurring in your country, I really hope it stops soon.

My wife loves watermelon! I enjoy it, but don't really ever find myself craving it. I am guessing it is quite a bit more common over here. We also have different varieties of melon, but I don't really care for the other ones. Do they also have honeydew and cantaloupe over there?

Hi Exyle. We have giant watermelons here and they are really cheap. The ones that are too big to export. Very healthy for you at the same time.

Watermelon is big in Florida because of the heat. It really is a cooling fruit. And there is nothing to it since it is so light.
Be sure to eat the pits. I only recently found out they are packed with all kinds of good stuff that we need.

Watermelon contains 90% of water, it is a great source of antioxidants (vitamin c and lycopene). Not only that it aids foods digestion but also helps in regulating the body ph (being alkaline) because our average diets contains a lot of saturated fats and sugars, and even processed foods tends to be more acidic.
It can also help in weight loss.
Good one @exyle...
Watermelon is one of my best fruits... But if I'm not thirsty, it's not always an easy choice to go for.

I love water melon in summer. We normally have some cubed up in the fridge so we can graze on it when ever we feel like it.
We tend to buy a whole melon and that works out pretty cheap. 😊

Watermelon is a great addition to your steemfat program. I just read the article you linked and I agree that this fruit is really fantastic. Like most people,I always make the mistake of throwing away the white part and the seeds. Now I will eat everything and just throw away the rind :)

Watermelon is good for you! And the diet. We used to grow it in Canada and we grow it here too, about 6 different kinds. They are great for parties too. When you have your next BBQ, take a watermelon and cut a small hole in the side. Pour in a bottle of vodka, replace the top and put in the fridge. Overnight is best, turning it once in a while to mix the vodka in the watermelon!

I love watermelon too, from luxembourg currently suffering the heat and I almost daily throw about half a small seedless watermelon with a glass of water and ice into the mixer, it is the most refreshing and tasty drink on earth. You can also add some mint leaves to it in the mixer if you like mint.
Definitely try that out you will be in paradise;)
