Watermelon = Tropical?

[Neballer]

So I'm sitting here eating a nice breakfast of Tropical Starburst Jelly beans when I notice that one of the flavors is watermelon, wth?

If you can grow it in Minnesota, I don't consider it tropical.
Your thoughts.

Hells no. Unless it's a mango, kiwi or another fruit that doesn't end in -melon or -berry, it ain't tropical.

My thoughts exactly!

no dice.

First off I have to voice my disgust for "tropical flavored" candy. They are just basterdized versions of the originals and are never in the same league as the original flavors. I mean look at Skittles - the perfect candy. First they wrecked them with Tropical, then California Fruit blend and now they have Sour Skittles. WTF - Why reinvent the wheel? Did the world really need skittles to go tropical ... I think not. But fear not I have a recipe to make watermelon more tropical for you.

Rum Soaked Watermelon
1 whole Watermelon
1 pint Light Rum

"Cut small plug out of side of watermelon. Pour in Rum.
Refit hole with plug and tape with strong tape.
Let watermelon soak for 24 hours, rotating 1/4 turn every few hours.
Take out plug and pour out excess Rum.
Slice watermelon and serve."

Since you have watermelon jellybeans I suggest you eat a handful and wash it down with some captain and coke - now thats a nice breakfast :D

Mangos, passion fruit, guava .... thats tropical ;)

I suppose corn will be the new tropical flavor to look out for, huh?
