From Spanlish.Com:
If you see this when you open a watermelon, do not eat it!
Watermelon is one of the fruits most loved by all, especially in hot weather. In addition, it has numerous benefits: hydrates the body, provides vitamins and sugars, fills us with energy… There should be no problem.
However, it has long been a chilling discovery. Some farmers began using a fertilizer that allows watermelons to reach a good size in much less time. This fertilizer is made from Forchlorfenuron, a very harmful chemical for health.
What this compound does is accelerate the division of the fruit cells, so that it grows more quickly. Imagine the effects it has on our body when we ingest it…
So far it has not been shown to be carcinogenic, but among the consequences that may occur are some skin problems and injuries inside the stomach.
In China it is legal to use this fertilizer, despite the controversy it has caused, while in the United States it is used not only in watermelon, but in kiwifruit and grapes.
Although in everyday life it is not possible for us to know with certainty where each food we eat comes from, this kind of cases make us see that it is important to look at where our food comes from. Take care and take care of yours, share this note!
Sharing IS Caring. So Care & Share.

Would you believe some folks, critics, said it was a racists film and not well acted or written? I can not believe how dumbass some humans are when it comes to racism or things where all humans get along.

I would have picked up on racism right away and I didn’t at all. All I saw was love from both sides.

Exactly. The dumbasses were saying Eddies character, Mr. Church, was a “slave”, un-quote, in current clothing because he was a cook for a caucasian family. There are some stupid people who live to stir up race trouble where there is none to be found, creating their own trouble. this negativity about this film is such a case.

Anything for money anymore – even if it poisons the populace. Why America allows substances banned in other countries cannot be answered any other way. Thanks for the warning. I guess I’ll be buying half watermelons from now on.

Thats the best way to go but if you think about that even, a half watermelon could very well be the half with no fruit separation. It’s very hard to trust any food source these days cause, as you stated, it’s all about the Benjamins.

Good point! Same goes for that cut up fruit on salad bars, now that I think about it. Do you think they WANT us all to be unhealthy, thinking we’ll be easier to manipulate or something? Since seeds spread, we can’t even really count on organic anymore.
