Finally, watermelons have fallen in price, the season has begun! Now we often buy, especially in the heat it is good. Many people buy watermelons, and I know people who eat a whole whole in one person. But no one ever thinks about the amount of nitrates.

A moment of humor to lift your mood: 😊
A person who understands watermelons, knocking on the door, can understand whether the family lives in a good apartment. 😂
The joke is taken from the site anekdoty.ru

The husband was at the vegetable market and went into the tent of the Uzbeks. They always have delicious and fresh vegetables and fruits, and aromatic, mmm... 😋

Chose an Uzbek watermelon (they said so). Not too big - almost 7 kg. We don't take very large watermelons, we don't eat together. And this is just right for us. We will "master" in 2-3 days.

I chose it as it should be: a yellow barrel, ringing.

And also the tail is dry! We always choose a watermelon and tasty ones come across, sweet ones.

Brought home this miracle berry. Now it's so hot that you really want a watermelon!

I have a device at home that shows the amount of nitrates in vegetables and fruits. I often use it. And then I decided to check the amount of nitrates in the Uzbek watermelon.

The norm of nitrates in watermelon is 60 ml / kg. The nitrate tester shows this.

First, I cut off the "top" of the watermelon. My surprise was when the watermelon turned out to be not bright pink, but rather pale and somehow loose.

Previously, we did not come across such watermelons. Why is he like that, who knows? 🤔

I put the dipstick in and measure. The device shows the value 490!!! This is 8 times the norm, eight!

On the other hand, I measured it again and the value is already 580! This is almost 10 times higher than the norm.

Well, okay, I will measure it again (I think maybe from the edge like that). I cut the watermelon to the middle.

I insert the probe again, and I see the value 760!!! I am very surprised. How so... exceeding almost 13 times!

This watermelon should not be eaten at all. But if one person eats a whole, can it become bad? Or am I not right?

Here's a watermelon for you! Honestly, I tried it first: although it is pale, it turned out to be sweet. 😏

We didn't eat it, we sent it to the trash bin. They didn't go to the market either. Watermelon cost 20 rubles per kilogram. They gave him about 140 rubles. We live in a private house, we can only go to the market by taxi. And this will come out as much as the watermelon cost, they considered it a waste of time and nerves.

What do you think about this? Was it necessary to take the cart back and demand money? 😮 Friends, write in the comments, you have already bought watermelons, how do you like them? Measured nitrates? subscribe to my channel "CULINARY MIX".
