August 3rd is National Watermelon Day in the good ol' U S of A. This is awesome as "watermelon" happens to be one of my favorite words. Just say it... wa ter mel on. mmm....
It's a good fruit to enjoy, especially if you're counting calories. One cup of watermelon has less than 5o calories and only 9 grams of sugar. That's still less calories than half of a banana. So enjoy guilt free.
If you search for watermelon recipes, you'll find all kinds of rubbish about covering it with honey and sugar and nonsense. .. best to enjoy it raw. Enjoy the fruit, let the juice dribble down your chin. Yum, tastes like summer. :)
