There’s no use crying over… sliced watermelon?

When this woman declines to eat the watermelon her sister picks up at the store, her sister takes it as a personal attack.

Read on for the full scoop!

AITA for not eating watermelons my (21m) sister (18f) keeps buying?

My sister is a big fan of watermelons.

In the summer she’s been buying watermelons from the grocery store almost every week. She cuts the watermelon and serves it, and she’s really into food preparation in general.

However, I’m not a big fan of watermelon. I don’t really like the taste of it.

So she tries to let her down easy.

When she offers it to me, I politely decline.

She says she feels hurt when I don’t eat the watermelon she buys and prepares, and she says I’m ungrateful and wasteful.

Her sister gets the rest of the family involved and they’re no help.

Our parents agree with her and say that I should just eat the watermelon to avoid wasting food and to support her efforts.

I said that I feel pressured into eating the watermelon, and I said that I’m not a fan of watermelon that much.

They still insisted that I eat the watermelon, saying that food should not go to waste, I should support and appreciate my sister, and that it has nutritious value.

Then she tries to defend her point of view.

I reiterated that I did not want to eat the watermelon because I do not like it.

I pointed out that I like mango and my sister does not, so I asked if she would eat mango that I buy and prepare.

She said that she would not because it’s kind of sour and has a weird texture, whereas watermelon is the ideal summer fruit because it’s sweet and juicy.

It didn’t go well.

After a 15 minute argument I still refused to eat the watermelon my sister is offering, and she and my parents became visibly upset.

So AITA for not eating the watermelon my sister bought and prepared?

Who knew watermelons could be so controversial?

Redditors flock to the comments section to share their take.

Her sister’s logic appears to be a bit flawed.

This Redditor doesn’t mince their words.

Has she ever actually tasted watermelon?

What kind of preparing is she doing anyway?

She’s entitled to enjoy whatever fruits she pleases!
