That's not me hanging over the watermelon pallet...

...but it very well could be!
 
Today I met my "twin" at Costco. Another woman, leaning well into the watermelon pallet, removing all the ones that didn't fit her standards, leaning way down to the bottom of the crate to get that...one...huge...one!!
 
She had 6 melons already in her cart.
 
I couldn't believe I was witnessing what I must look like... I asked her, "Are these for a social event or something?" and she replied, "No, I just eat a lot of watermelon." Now this was sounding exactly like me!
 
So I asked if she was into raw foods (which she is) and we talked a bit. I told her about my website and how we eat fruit all day. She said she eats watermelon every day until she gets sick of it, but when I asked if she was doing a watermelon mono-diet, she said "Oh no, no way!" ha, ha.
 
It's fun to meet other crazy fruitcakes and see that you're not the only one. What made it even better was that she was a very attractive, trendy, made-up, 30-something woman. I am so glad that "raw foods" is now a household term, and it can apply to ANYBODY and everybody! It is not just for crunchy hippie-chicks!

I thought people would look at me funny for buying 2... guess I would have been ok :) I LOVE watermelon!!! And grapes... I'm wondering if its all the liquid in them. I have such a hard time even getting two glasses of water down a day.
