[xwteee]

What's the reason one should not eat too much of a watermelon in Thailand : the overuse of pesticides ?

Says who? Never heard that one.

There used to be an occasional problem with water injection to make them weight more (that could be contaminated) but don't believe it is currently a serious problem.

never read eating watermelons is bad for you.1st time i've heard of injecting water to add wieght though

[xwteee]

I've heard quite a few times from Thai people that eating too much watermelon ain't good, probably because too much pesticides are being used. No one else who has heard that story ?

I remember reading somewhere that bacteria breeds easier on the pre-cut watermelon, as opposed to the other fruits, you can buy from the carts etc.

Did it all the time throughout the college days. Used vodka or everclear... Best to let it sit over night in the fridge....

Probably a rumour started by the watermellon farmers.
