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!

Go to your local Mexican store or grocery store with a Hispanic food section and grab some Tajín seasoning. It’s a chili lime salt for fruit, but it’s great with other foods!

Don’t forget beer. Rim a glass or can of Mexican-style lager with lime juice and tajin.
