I know.
When I first bought pink grapefruit juice it was as if I'd brought home rat poison in a bottle labelled Yummy, Yummy Stuff, Get You Feeling Fizzy With No Consequences.
Mum pitched a fit. On Dad's behalf.

I actually stuck a label across the opening in case he mistook the size of the carton, and the different packaging AND the colour of the juice...
I don't have to do that any more, in the same way I don't have to label my knickers so that Dad doesn't wear them. He gets confused, but he's not a complete basket case.

I do get where Mum was coming from though.

I don't rank fruits one over another; they are either the fruits I like, or the fruits I don't, which is a much shorter list. Hell, I see the attractions of durians. (Durian works as an ice-cream flavor.)

Melons are seeded fruits, and do have to be ripe to be fun. Canteloupe you can at least check for ripe by ear, holding it up and listening for it to slosh. Watermelon, regrettably, I got too glutted on one church picnic and now need to season either with lemon juice Russian style or with chile pepper and salt Mexican style, with or without lime juice as well. Cuts the excess of wateriness.
