Same. And I thought that everyone ate watermelon with salt until I was like 20. XD
Salt on Watermelon.
Pepper on Cantaloupe.
Pro-tip...slice radishes. Toss in salt. Takes all the bitterness out and they are amazing.

No. You're all wrong and you should feel bad about yourselves.
No, no never. I will never feel bad about eating watermelon. It is one of the pleasures of life on a hot summer day in the Sunny Southland. Ice cold and seeds to spit out. If the doc ever tells me to give up watermelon, I just gave up on life. Bury me and forget about me.
I hope I don't need salt on one. If its a good sweet watermelon then I wouldn't think of salting it but ya get those that just aren't as good and salt helps them IMO.
If the Melon comes from Missouri sand dirt there’s nothing needed but a hammer to bust that bi*^% open.
Opposite for me. Sometimes I lightly salt watermelon and usually leave cantaloupe untouched.
never even heard of this, and summertime watermelon is also one of my favorite life pleasures.
how much salt do you put on it, any particular salt and does it make that big of a difference and what is the difference like?

Depends. If I'm having fresh watermelon on its own ---> no salt.
Had a spring beet salad with goat cheese and salted watermelon over the weekend ---> awesome.

No a good watermelon is the last fruit that needs any additives wtf
A slice of watermelon with either Lemon Pepper or Cajun seasoning is the bomb. [roll]
I refuse to eat watermelon that has been salted. It is disgusting.
Crappy watermelons are helped with salt but you're eating a crappy watermelon.
No salt for me. And no lime or orange slice on my beer! It’s a beer, not a freakin fruit salad.
Table salt. And you want to just barely put any on. You should be able to count the crystals that fell on the slice. And when you do it right, it makes the melon taste sweeter. If you don't like salt on watermelon, you're putting too much on.
A man puts black pepper on his cantaloupe. How many times do we have to go over this? You take your hat off, even at a picnic table, you never slice cornbread in pie shapes . . .ever, and black pepper the cantaloupe.
Silt strata where Missouri melons are grown. There's a specific name for the type of soil in the region. Can't think of it at present. Extremely fertile growing region basically continuation to Mississippi delta floodplains. Canal / irrigation channels established throughout the region, SE Missouri, bootheel, NE Arkansas tremendous Army Corps yesteryear achievement.
White people have to put salt on everything ....
I have no clue WTF you would want to put salt on a sweet piece of fruit. You guys put salt on strawberries and pineapple too? Never even heard of this, what a bunch of weirdos.
Do you guys also put salt on poontang before you eat it?
I mean, I understand some whipped cream..
But, no, no salt on watermelon.

You anti-American bastard! Go back to France! Or Canada! Whatever hell hole regurgitated you up!
Why limit yourself, salted, unsalted, it's freakin' watermelon! Now the wife will only eat grits if they have sugar on them. I seriously considered breaking up with her over that, but then realized it was that same lack of taste that allowed her to tolerate me, so I just mock her relentlessly about it.
Really, butter, and salt on your grits people. Shrimp, and roasted red pepper, or jalapeno will send it over the top. But sugar is Yankeefied.
