Yes, yes to most of what you got goin’ on here :) I’m just compelled to stick up for watermelon lol! nah, it’s a really good source of nutrition and worth highlighting to promote more frequent consumption. Here’s a few bits on why:

Some people may need to choose between foods they can actually have and could use more information to make the healthiest decisions for them or their family. Many of the supporting sources I found state that one could and should eat more servings of these nutrient dense foods (and that many people do not eat enough of the good stuffs like these examples)

Anyway, happy watermelon eating hahaha 😸

:/ Not very fair to all the allies and other trans peoples and folks that fight tyranny within these places. I bet we can come up with a better answer than mass murder?

The author could have supported their statements a little better, but scattered throughout the articles are reasons like:

  • Ginger is harvested in winter and will decline in quality over time, so it may be best to harvest and use sooner rather than later. It will help with the side effects of meat stored for harsh and long times
  • Nutmeg is harvested in August and then proceeds through processing routes that may take enough time to complete and be ready for use by winter
  • Cinnamon is largely harvested after monsoon season June-December, so will be available for use in time for fall and winter time
