How did black people ever get associated with watermelon?!
Answers: I never understood that. Watermelon?
When they were torn from there homeland and forced into slavery they brought the seeds with them from Africa, like the cheaper cuts of meat, chickens, bitter greens (collards, mustard greens and spianch) and yams (another African based veg) they made due with the foods available, the watermelon grew well in the south and they were large enough to fee a number of people, the racial thing is based on the non-black communitys preception of there culture.
I'm going to take a shot in the dark here, but I assume it's because watermelon grows better in the South, and there is a large African American population there.
I wish I were associated with it, I adore it!
I think it's a southern type of joke thing.
black people like to eat fried chicken and watermelon
lol...that's all i have
In the south, during slave times there was a standing joke about the slaves eating watermelon and fried chicken. These were popular foods among the slaves because the watermelon was ready to eat in its own protective case, so it could easily be eaten in the fields, and shared by many, and it was refreshing. It was avoided by the white slave owners because it was messy (beneath them). The fried chicken because it tasted good cold, and was inexpensive to feed them, also, it was something that made use of the rations common to the slaves. Now I only ever hear it from racist morons.
