Answers:
No. It's food just like the rest of it. You'll digest it the same.

Nope. They just come out with your poo.

Don't you remember this as a kid?: You better be careful, one will grow inside you if you swallow a watermelon seed.

Nope, in fact you get more dietary benefits from eating seeds. Research has shown that people who live in other cultures where see eating is common are generally healthier than non seed eating Americans.

hahaha who told u that dear?? no lahh. just eat it n surely nothing will happen to u.

I had a Japanese friend. When she was a little girl, she had a pregnant neighbour and her mean brother told her that it was because she had swallowed a watermelon seed and now a watermelon was growing inside her.

Even at the age of 30 she never swallowed her watermelon seeds.

Watermelon seeds won't digest. If you eat a lot of them made they will clog you up inside (don't try the experiment without medical supervision) but generally if we don't digest it, it will pass through us.

Some seeds contain toxins and if you break the seed you will be exposed to the toxin.

be careful you might grow a watermelon in your tummy!

Nah! not really nothing will happen....u will just be adding more fibre to ur diet....did you know watermelon seeds are salted and dried and eaten as a snack, and recommended for weight watcher.

If you eat them a watermelon will grow in your stomache! wwhhHHOOOOOoooo! jk :)
