lopburi3 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xwteee Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 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 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
