It’s Been So Hot, Watermelons Are Exploding

It’s been so hot this summer, that some watermelons are turning into dangerous ticking timebombs. The heat can cause them to ferment, and if that happens, you’ll see a foam bubbling out, and it’s possible they could explode. Now, it may sound like a fermenting watermelon could be a FUN thing, like becoming alcoholic like hard cider. But it’s actually dangerous, and SHOULD NEVER BE EATEN. A fermenting watermelon is the ideal environment for toxic pathogens, including botulism, E. coli and Salmonella.  (Here’s a video of a foaming watermelon)
