Over the weekend Kyle purchased two giant SEEDED (!) watermelons for a BBQ (that ended up being cancelled). I guess we had yet to have that conversation, and it’s a good one to have. I think it might have been my mood that day as I sliced, diced and chopped away at those ginormous melons that I let him know that I’m not so much a fan of the seeded. I mean c’mon! It’s like nuts in a perfect brownie. Why?
As far as modern day technology has come, seedless watermelon is for sure one of our privileges that I am happy to take full advantage of.
One good thing that came from these watermelons was the watermelon lemonade slushies that followed. Yum! Now the sticky mess, that’s another story. I guess this slushie now gives me a reason to start buying seeded…not to eat, just to juice.
Do tell… Do you buy seeded or seedless? I’m just curious.
* Just added:
As for the recipe, after I juiced and strained the watermelon juice I wanted to try this recipe, but I got lazy and I just winged it. I happened to have a container of this stuff. So I just mixed it in, tasting along the way.
To make a slushie, I just filled a small cup with the drink and put it in the freezer for 2 hours. You should try it!
do share how to make these delicious looking watermelon lemonade slushies {i know it should be self explanatory, but i'm no martha}
Why are they still growing seeded watermelons? WHY?
And yes, please share the recipe/how to!
Seedless, of course! I'm not enough of a naturalist to want otherwise. Bring on the genetic engineering!
Call me crazy, but I think the seeded ones taste a little better. Still, they are a pain.
YUM!
and yes, seedless
seedless!
I feel the same way about watermelons – and brownies, for that matter!! Seedless all the way!
Thanks for the slushy recipe – looks yum!
I just cut up a "seedless" one that was chuck full of white seeds. I guess we can just eat them?
I agree that the seeded ones have a sweeter flavor.
I love your blog. Your pictures are gorgeous. What kind of camera do you use?
Ofcourse seedless. I've always wondered why they don't sell watermelon juice at the store??
BUT seriously do you not think that the FLAVOR in a seeded is better????
SEEDLESS all the way!
i bet aiden loved that slushie… slushie's are june's favorite food
they look delicious…
seedless, obviously.
I can't imagine why anyone would get a watermelon with seeds, it's too much work to eat it! However, when you send a hubby out for anything you must be very specific and write it down, I learned this the hard way.
I'm definitely a seedless type of gal myself
and I couldn't agree with you more on the ruining a perfectly good brownie with nuts 
Thanks for sharing girl!!!
seedless of course. but then i only just cut my first watermelon via the 'tiffany method' about 2 months ago.
megan always enabled me and cut them for me. (shocker.)
i wonder if she'll enable me and make the slushie?
I'm not a fan. I rarely eat watermelon. But when I do, half the fun is spitting the seeds really far. So Im' gonig to go with seeded.
