I'll admit it: it's hard to get over the reality that it's only Tuesday, and Hump Day hasn't even passed yet. That's why I've got to find other excuses to celebrate the moment — like today marking the holiday that is National Watermelon Day! Follow in my footsteps and celebrate over a colossal pitcher of watermelon sangria, or by making one of our favorite unconventional watermelon recipes. Oh, and by testing out your knowledge of the fruit's fun facts, of course! Decide what's fact and what's fiction when you get started below.

Before this weekend, I would have thought "do you like watermelon?" was a silly question. After all, everyone likes watermelon, right?
Apparently not. At my Fourth of July party — which, like all good July 4th parties, featured watermelon — there were three people who claimed to dislike watermelon. I was shocked that such people existed. They complained that the fruit tastes watered down, whereas I think it's sweet as candy. So how about you?
I don't know if you recall, but a few years back Japanese farmers made the news with square watermelon. This time the melons are shaped like faces, hearts, stars and more. - Ping Mag
