[tonksy]

you guys have watermelon?

 

[A.B.Normal]

We can get it here ,but I'm not sure if it would grow in our gardens.

 

[tonksy]

so it's not a mandatory item on your BBQ grocery list? i shall have to provide some ice cold watermelon at the party!

 

[Luis G]

do you have cantaloupe watermelon in the US/Canada?

Oh no, its mandatory for BBQs alright,but personally I find them a bit messy.I like the ends cut into a bowl ,so as not to get juice everywhere.I did just have some the other day because it was put out for the staff and I ain't saying no to free coffeebreak food.In my younger days ,it wasn't uncommon to cut a hole into the rind and fill it with alcohol.

cantaloupe without a ladder

Seriously though ,we do get cantaloupe here ,in todays economy almost anything gets imported.

 

[tonksy]

yes, but do you get the good stuff? the south grows great melons.

We grow em great up here too

 

[K62]

Yup, we get watermelon up here. I am not sure if it is the good stuff though since I haven't had anything else.

Maybe I can try some southern melon out later this month when I go to Florida!

tonksy, if you plant some today you may have some real good stuff for 'em & not a S. American import

With a full beard, watermelon doesn't show up on my list of foods. And then there's all that spitting ..... :gag:

 

[HomeLAN]

By late June, you'll be able to get the fresh stuff at the roadside stands.

Hey Prof,you can get one for the kids to eat in the backseat on the trip home

 

[HomeLAN]

And a pressure washer to clean both it and them off.

 

[Professur]

Tonks, people think I'm anal enough about table manners, without having pulled out a knife and fork to eat watermelon. (and I just saw seedless watermelon for the first time yesterday in a grocery circular)

AB, one day, all this will come back to haunt you.

HL, I am coming personally, to haunt you.

The best part about seedless watermelons is, the seeds.
