Meet the salad that’s kinda like a secret weapon
Most fruit salads are just, well, fruit salads. But this one—watermelon and pineapple—turns into something quite honest. You chop them into chunky bites, but then—wait—something happens. The watermelon’s juice leaks into the pineapple, pooling into tiny, sweet puddles that make you forget about everything else. I didn’t plan this, not at first. I just wanted something to snack on that didn’t feel like a chore. But then I noticed the smell—clean and sharp, almost like fresh cut grass mingling with citrus. No dressing needed. No tricks. Just a simple combo you forget about until summer’s sticky evenings make you crave something cold and bright. And honestly, I keep coming back because I’ve realized fruit salads can surprise you. This one feels like a quick magic trick, but that’s really just summer talking.
