When I was little, I always used watermelons to sit on after we bought one from the store. My mom always warned me, "don't fart on it or it will explode!"
I believed this until I was 15 when I told my older sister not to fart on the watermelon and she just laughed at me.

When I was six my sister told me that if I swallowed a watermelon seed it would grow in my stomach. I swallowed on by accident and waited years for it to grow, the whole time i was scared the plant was slowly rising toward my mouth. I was fourteen when I realized it wasn't true.
When I was little whenever I'd eat water melon my mom would tell me not to eat the seeds. Once I was eating it with my pregnant aunt and for years after that I thought if you swallowed the watermelon seeds, you grew a watermelon in your stomach.

When I was about four, I saw a fat man. I thought he was pregnant. I told my mother and she told me he just swallowed a watermelon seed. Now I've gotten myself into the habit of meticulously picking out the black watermelon seeds before I eat a watermelon slice.

When I was little, my sister told me that watermellons were elephant eggs. I waited for two months for a baby elephant to hatch out of the watermelon in the kitchen.

When I was little I used to believe that if I ate the black seeds in a watermelon a water melon would grow in my stomach, thus came the pregnant women haha

Wen I was little my mom told me that if I swallowed a watermelon seed a watermelon would grow inside of me. I then proceeded to not drink water so I wouldn't water the seed and worry about a watermelon growing in me.

As a young girl, I had a small body, but a very large stomach and I loved eating watermelons. My grandpa loved to tease me and at one point told me that the reason I had such a big stomach was because I swallowed a watermelon seed and it grew inside my stomach. I was convinced I had a watermelon inside me for a while after that.
My dad used to tell me that watermelons were dinosaur eggs and if i sat on them long enough they would hatch. I sat on it, and cried like a maniac when he went to cut it open.
My mom use to tell me that if you swollowed the seeds while eating a watermelon then a watermelon patch would grow in your belly. To this day I only buy seedless watermelon

When I was little I used to think if you ate watermelon seeds (or any kind of fruit) they would grow in your stomach all because my grandfather use to tell me that. I can't even eat kiwis! Lol

When I was in elementary school my teacher got pregnant & told us that her belly was growing because she ate a watermelon and the seeds were growing in her belly. To this day I don't eat watermelon.

My mom used to tell us that if we ate watermelon seeds that a watermelon tree would grow in our stomachs. My brother got this brilliant idea that if he swallowed quarters, he would grow a quarter tree in his stomach and be rich.
I used to believe that if I ate the black seeds in watermelon, I'd grow a watermelon in my tummy. So whenever I would get watermelon with any black seeds, I'd spit them out. However, one day I told my mom and dad about the black seeds, and how bad they were b/c you'd grow a watermelon in your stomach. My dad responded, " What? Get outa here...you wont grow a watermelon in your stomach," and everyone was laughing at me.

When we were little kids eating watermelon at my Grandma's house my Uncle John used to cut the red part out of the watermelon and eat it, leaving us the pink and white part before the rind. He said he was taking out the bad part so we would not get sick.
Deb
when i was in kindergarten i was eating watermelon and swallowed a seed. my teacher told me a watermelon would grow in my stomach and i was so terrified that i started crying and had to leave the room. to this day i make sure not to swallow watermelon seeds even though i know it's impossible for a watermelon to grow in my stomach.
