    Pop is what I'd default to; someone asking for soda would immediately make me think of club soda/soda water; coke = coca-cola

    Mint is delicious in both savoury and sweet things. (Hummus + mint + grilled lamb = omnomnom)

    Watermelon has bad texture, its like eating wet sand XP. cantalope and honeydew are wonderful, but only at very specific times in their ripeness

    I love spearmint but cant stand regular mint on its own. Peppermint in candy is a hard maybe, and very good in smallest amounts with super sharp cheddar. Also, i dont think it can be used in food but theres a variety of mint called chocolate mint and it smells like magic.

    Water melon is the best melon and mint is... I'm partial to Moroccan mint tea if I can get it and mint and chocolate is a really good combo.

    A dish I expect many people will have Opinions about: watermelon, mint, and feta salad. I'm a big fan, even though the first time I had it I only tried it because I couldn't imagine what it would taste like.

    Mint is lovely if applied sparingly and not in the form of tea.

    I have a hard time imagining the mint not overwhelming the melon entirely.

    Ngl it sounds gross to me, but the presentation and that recipe's suggested added ingredients remind me of ceviche but with watermelon instead of fish

    Oh, I've had something like this! I think it had balsamic vinegar on it too, and it was DELICIOUS.

    It's a can of pop, but i find myself asking "do you have diet soda" at restaurants and sometimes bars, which sometimes confuses the server who thinks I mean club soda. No, halp i just want fizzy non alcoholic beverage with no sugar so i dont need insulin for it lol

    And mint is ok, wintogreen is my fave lifesaver flave.

    Watermelon is a good, and i have eaten entire slices including the rind. Altho in retrospect thats a bad plan unless i knew itd been properly washed.

    Wosh you wabermelonb.

    On the subject of pop/soda/carbonated beverages, who else likes rootbeer floats?

    I like floats, but not root beer ones. I mostly drink weird mixes like birthday cake ice cream and lemon twist soda

    Charlie I got no strings to hold me down

    When I was a little kid I saw this tv special recipes for kids where they were like... 'This recipe is the 'purple cow' and it was basically a grape soda float.

    I think it's my favourite? I think grape soda goes really well with icecream, even though I prefer rootbeer as a stand-alone pop.
