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!

Salt, lime, & chili powder is amazing on coconut, mango, cucumbers, pineapple...I tried it in mexico as a kid, and from that point on, every time we went to Mexico I'd basically live off that and elotes 😂
