It doesn't taste of anything... It's so watery. Like a sweeter version of cucumber.

you think of Gene Harrogate?

Alrite..

Post workout watermelon...

I just tried.. the following ramen soup flavor dips.

Chicken, it's ok, the tinge of celery conflicts

Beef, Much to pungent, the spicy doesn't really help either, does not blend

Shin, again, pungent, spicy, not good.

Shin Black, Nope...


Conclusion so far.. Ramen powder, not so good with Watermelon.

Hmmm, you make me wanna try dipping watermelon in soy sauce. It could be pretty good....

Salty. Savory. Theoretically everything looks to be in place.

It'd probably depend on what type of soysauce..  like some of the kikkoman flavored ones are designed for meats, IMHO probably wouldn't be good because they're similar to the ramen flavor packets.

In Mexico we sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes with salt and lime seasoning. We use it over a lot of fruits including cucumber, melon, tp4melons, mango and even freshly cut carrots. If you have a Mexican store anywhere near look out for it. Most popular brand is called Tajin.

Watermelon is amazing. You eat. And drink. Thirst quenching at its finest.

Watermelon flavored stuff like gum is cancer.

It should be a law that watermelon must be eaten ice cold. In fact, maybe it is already a law in some states?! :shrug:

Just when you think you’ve seen it all in the world of gadgets, Japan churns out yet another unique device. This time it’s the Marugoto Tamachan [JP], a watermelon cooler and heater. That’s right, the machine doesn’t just cool watermelons, but for some reason it can also heat them up. And it’s portable, too.

Maker Joybond says the heating feature can be useful for keeping other stuff warm, too, for example beverages or food. The Marugoto Tamachan holds 14l and is sized at 50.2×35.4×39.2cm (weight: 6.3kg).

You should mod it, make it a watermelon cannon so you can drop them farther.

Try the salt water dip ..  it has to be VERY salty salt water,  because otherwise it doesn't really work

Nothing to lose..  ..

They're selling to specific consumers!
You know, those that shoot the water melons. Or grow the giant ones and have competitions. Maybe the ones who launch them. Colder would mean harder water melon.
Also, the cooler is about $200

The problem with watermelon is it instead of cooling you down in hot days, it actually brings heat to the body, the result is acnes, and it feels bad especially in hot places


But I like it too, with a little bit of salt yes, and cooled, I can eat a whole one every time some one bring watermelon in...

I got a watermelon and coffee beverage some time while taking a coffee course  in a hotel I was working at, made by a Swiss master Batista. Sounded awful, tasted delightfully.

It's grated Grana over a center cut piece of melon.


The feel is very similar to salt sprinkle over melon,  but with added richness from the fats..


Overall,  quite delicious..


I wouldn't use soft cheeses, because they are probably too sticky and would alter the texture of the watermelon too much..

-Yes, i did think it through while selecting the cheese-
