Watermelon - To Salt or Not To Salt

[keltic 1]

its called maceration... like adding sugar to strawberries... the salt draws out water, which makes it juicier and concentrates the sweetness... its all good!

if you watch your sodium intake in other things, a little bit of salt with watermelon won't make it unhealthy... everyone needs some sodium

I tried it at the Mexi markets on the weekend - watermelon with salt, lime juice and chili - it was unbeliveably good. The watermelon felt much more watery and refreshing in my mouth.

Watermelon with salt =

No salt.

The first time I saw someone salt fruit, I was like:

I assumed it was a southern thing, since I'd never seen it in my life until I moved to Kentucky

Watermelon is one of our favorite fruits..

One of my girl buddies loves it too. So everytime we are sharing watermelon, we need to cut it in half because she loves salt and i hate it..

The only fruit I like salt on is green apples.

[Marilyn. 340]

I realize now I should have put an option for "haven't tried so don't know if I like it or not"

Lol, never heard about putting salt in watermelon. But sometimes, we do put sugar in watermelon.
