Watermelon is the best food of all time, so I wanted to try watermelon water, but this stuff is so goddamn expensive. Ordering directly from the company, a 12-pack of 12 oz. bottles is $44.99.

https://shop.wtrmlnwtr.com

Has anyone tried this stuff? Is it worth getting once, or should I just throw some watermelon in a blender the next time they're in season?

 

[Pinko Marx]

Just make your own m8

Spoiler

and then mix it with a good vodka.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

I've had watermelon water... but not WTRMLN WTR. Seems overpriced nonsense. Stuff I bought was from a local farmer market and could get like a carton for a couple bucks.

 

[Kwixotik]

Watermelon is like 99% water anyway. Just get a watermelon.

 

[Brianimaniac]

Watermelon is like 99% water anyway. Just get a watermelon.

They're not in season and the out-of-season packaged stuff is flavorless.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

lol what a scam

 

[Leona Lewis]

Jay Z invested in the company so you know it's terrible.

Does that mean that tap water is 99% watermelon?

 

[jb1234]

It looks delicious but not at those prices.

 

[Baroquemantic]

That is far too expensive. Also, watermelon is awful.

 

[Fusebox]

Chop the top of a watermelon, fill it with Sambucca, mash it all up and drink it straight out of the watermelon instead.

 

[studyguy]

45 bills for fucking watermelon juice, what the actual fuck?

they're always in season, it's called "child labor in Latin America"

 

[Brianimaniac]

I've never eaten a good-tasting watermelon later than September.

Its wtr.

Gt wth th prgrm.

 

[Davidion]

I'm a sucker for alternative beverages, particularly of the light and refreshing variety; so I've tried this. Unfortunately, it actually tastes a little too much like rind, and doesn't hit the right sweet vs. refreshing middle ground for me. The price is also EXTRA egregious, even in this age of designer pricet non-alcoholic cooler-aisle beverages.

I would highly recommend maple water as a better, lightly sweetened take on water.

Also, watermelon is awful.

...wat

 

[JTripper]

Is watermelon water juice or water?

 

[Wolfe]

T's wtr.

Gt wth th prgrm.

You missed a vowel bro, I got your back!

Our natural enemy strikes again, the dread hipster.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I just don't like the taste. I've tried watermelon a number of times and it's never tasted good to me.

It's true.

I just don't like the taste. I've tried watermelon a number of times and it's never tasted good to me.

Preach.

[AMUSIX]

I buy it at Costco sometimes, my wife loves it. Expensive, sure, but there are other things that cost money, too. Not like I'm pulling from the necessities in order to afford a drink.

 

[Wag]

 

[Quotient]

You should try your local costco. We picked up a 4 pack for $12.

 

[Heroman]

It takes a lot of melons to make dat juice

 

[rrtyu]

I have the odd feeling that this might someday become a case study for business majors...

 

[Futureman]

I just don't like the taste. I've tried watermelon a number of times and it's never tasted good to me.

I don't think it's necessarily bad but watermelon is way overrated. It's like the color beige of fruits. Bland and inoffensive.

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

That is far too expensive. Also, watermelon is awful.

I've never had actual watermelon, but watermelon-flavored things are definitely gross. Almost as bad as grape and banana.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Watermelon is the best fruit. Saying otherwise is blasphemy of the highest order.

 

[taco543]

My brother bought a bottle from Costco and dropped it off like a month ago, I drank it and it was good, but not at the exorbitant price that theyre asking for it. Knowing how much it costs, reassures to me that my brother is indeed a fool.

 

[Jenov]

WHY IS TH BRND NM RTRDD

 

[Rentahamster]

There is no way I'm paying actual money for that.

 

[matrixman92]

seems interesting, I didnt even know this was a thing. I stopped drinking soda and switched to mainly just water. I might need to give this a try. Not for that price tho

 

[Brakke]

Their FAQ is astounding.

"Is WTRMLN WTR Organic? Watermelons [...] are considered safe to consume in non-organic form"

Better not consume any unsafe non-organics, brehs.

"Does WTRMLN WTR add water? No water is ever added to WTRMLN WTR. Interestingly, the watermelon fruit is naturally compromised of 92% water, so adding water isn’t necessary for refreshment"

Interestingly, you idiot marks are basically just buying water!

"Is WTRMLN WTR safe for children? Absolutely! If your children love watermelon, they will love WTRMN WTR and enjoy the same benefits."

Wait. What. Why wouldn't it--

"Is WTRMLN WTR safe for pregnant women?"

WHO IS ASKING THESE QUESTIONS SO FREQUENTLY!!

This one takes he cake though:

"When is the best time for me to drink WTRMLN WTR?"

Hey dipshits. You drink when you are thirsty.

 

[Big Chungus]

anyone remember that pantyhose strainer some mma guy was selling to make watermelon juice?

lol

 

[GaimeGuy]

I'm going to sue WTRMLN WTR for damages to my brain.

What a stupid name.

Yes, the other 1% that's missing is the DNA and flavors.

How can you have never tried watermelon?! I feel like sending you one right now.

Keep DNA out of my food! No GMOs!

Can we just clone watermelon genes? What do we have scientists for?

I was the alpha and omega of picky eaters as a kid. I always thought they looked really fun to eat in cartoons and stuff, but I never ate any when my family bought some.

 

[ponpo]

Watermelon does indeed own and I would love some watermelon water. High five op.

 

[Brianimaniac]

usually 2 for $5

The first two ingredients on that are water and sugar. Then it has other juices added in addition to the watermelon juice.

 

[Fusebox]

KO if you ever get a chance to try it please film your reaction, your huge grin would be priceless. Watermelon is some life-affirming shit.

 

[Wafflecakes]

I like watermelon, but I cannot imagine the water being that good on its own.

Texture is half of what is good about the melon.
