If we talk about the standard item for the hot summer, besides air conditioning, it must be watermelon, which not only relieves the heat but also quenches thirst.

Just thinking about the rosy and juicy flesh of the melon, are you drooling?

I guess many people eat watermelon by holding half of it and eating it directly with a spoon, as they think it is more satisfying this way.

However, it is not recommended to eat watermelon with a spoon, because...

Therefore, the reason why you cannot use a spoon when eating watermelon is that it is easy to eat too much and exceed the limit.

Although the sugar content of watermelon is not very high, if you eat too much, the sugar content will naturally increase, and you will find yourself gaining weight as you eat more.

In addition, eating too much watermelon can irritate the stomach and intestines, causing abdominal pain and diarrhea. Watermelon has a high water content and has a diuretic effect, which increases the frequency of going to the toilet. If it is not discharged in time, it will cause great pressure on your bladder.

In addition, if you really can't finish it, it is not easy to preserve.

Just think about it, after digging the watermelon pulp, putting it in your mouth and eating it, and then digging it again, the remaining watermelon pulp will be stained with saliva, and it will be more likely to deteriorate if stored like this.

Therefore, it is recommended to cut the watermelon into pieces and eat it.
