Beat the heat in Qatar

 These years when summer and Ramadan comes together fasting is really though . I dream of juicy fruits all day  and I finish my morning meals with a large portion of fresh fruit ! Water melon is my favourite one !

The top of the summer joys used to be buying and having watermelon in the second half of July during my childhood .

Are Iranian Watermelons Safe ?

I  love watermelons , you love watermelons  we all love watermelons ...It helps to beat the heat . We drink less sodas if we have watermelon .. it has all kinds of benefit on our health ... it promotes heart health , blood flow , digestion  ,   it makes  our hair and skin beautiful  ... and this is the  number one fruit  containing  lycopene .

 But what about the Iranian watermelons ? Are their safe enough to be given to our kids ? Such questions came up when Gulf countries of the Arab side are seriously opposed to the Iranian  foreign policy . (see Yemen , Syria ) No wonder that such fears appear . I just wonder that they did not come earlier .  Supermarkets were all selling happily Syrian fruits all these years !

 Now the news about contaminated watermelons spread in the social medias .Officially nothing has been confirmed yet .

 But what  I noticed when having watermelons this year is that they are not ripe enough .Some of them were pale pink and tasted like cucumber .
So we decided to avoid watermelon until better quality is brought from a friendlier country .
