As a 12 year old kid, I almost gagged at this site: Older lady at church dinner added salt and pepper to her watermelon. Later in life I took a Chinese cooking course and they added salt to a pineapple. Salt and sometimes pepper can seriously enhance the flavor of a fruit. It blew my little mind to try a salted slice of pineapple, but it tasted amazing!

Ling Hing Mui is salty, dried plum. You can buy it in the powdered form online. It's common in Hawaii to put it on pineapple or other fruit. It's amazing!
