Last night my wife asked for a piece of my watermelon and she spit it out after realizing it had salt on it. Got my wondering who here likes it naked vs salt? David W. Rather fail with honor than succeed by fraud. -Sophocles | ||

Salt on watermelon is just sick. When I was a child I could never understand my relatives that put salt on watermelon. They must have a very serious maladjustment?

it's a Southern thing, isn't it? I like salt on most things and use too much of it, but that sounds disgusting. | |||

French Dressing. Just kidding. The locals here put French Dressing on their pizza and ketchup on their hot dogs. Salt on watermelon is as bad a pouring peanuts in your Doctor Pepper. | |||

| Thank you Very little  |
Heck no... | |||

I'll eat it either way, but I always hit it with a little salt if I'm home. | |||

That used to be quite common around here. I have fond memories of a watermelon patch along the highway to Houston, probably between Schulenberg and Columbus. At first it was just a small place to pull off the road, park and enjoy cold watermelon. Then there as a small wooden stand, which was gradually expanded, then became a walk-in sit down air-conditioned building, with sawdust floors. In all these changes always salt shakers! It got even fancier before I-10 came through, and poof, that was that! We were encouraged to consume salt. Salt tablets are football practice, etc. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

I generally think salt ruins watermelon, then one day I was eating potato chips with my watermelon. Now I kind of get it. Potato chips goes better with watermelon than salt. | |||

I love salt on my watermelon and green apples. I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log. | |||

Absolutely. Enhances the sweetness! Especially if the melon isn't perfectly ripe. Only way I get it any more is supermarket watermelon, which is on a par with comparing Buttwiper to actual beer. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

Hell yes and that goes for tomatoes cantaloupes and cucumbers also. | |||

| Little ray of sunshine  |
Agreed. I am very open-minded about most things related to food. This is one that I completely fail to understand. On tomatoes, for sure. Not on sweet fruits. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Don't Panic |
Never tried the former but the latter is standard. Pepper is good on muskmelon as well. | |||
