Truth in advertising...

Post by valerie »

Okay, can someone please tell me how come they are allowed to call

it "seedless" watermelon? 'Cause it still has some seeds in it? Why don't

they call it "low seed" watermelon or "reduced seed" watermelon?

Oh yeah Val, I hate those so called seedless watermelons. They are far from seedless. Then they have the nerve to charge .25 to .35 cents a pound more for those "seedless", than the regular watermelons. I love watermelon, but hate seeds of any kind, so sometimes it takes me at least 5 minutes or more to clean every last seed out of the melon. Others around me are half way finished eating their slice, while I didn't even get started yet :wah:
