Imagine the *shock* of opening up a watermelon and seeing *this*! [View all]

Yeah, somebody will educate me that this is not at all unusual and has untold advantages. It's just that it's the first and only one I've ever seen in 78 years of supposedly "living." Yeah, I'm sheltered.

And the shock is in the category of all those videos about Golden Retrievers or Huskies discovering their bed being taken over by a cat or a prank of their owner.

*** But my verdict specifically about *this* melon (not whatever all other ones like this) compared to all the red ones I've loved before: It was tougher to cut through, dryer, weak flavor. There was no announcement sign at the store saying it was different from the ordinary, was just cheaper.
