- Walmart shopper slices open a watermelon bought from store — then, she saw something odd inside (marketrealist.com)
A TikTok video is going viral after a Walmart shopper documented a rather unpleasant watermelon experience. TikToker Raquel (@gyaldem_ari) shared a video showing a deflated watermelon leaking water all over her kitchen floor. But the real shock came when she cut it open, revealing a gooey, pink sludge inside.
The video shows Raquel following a trail of water to the collapsed watermelon sitting on her stove. The top of the fruit had caved in, and the skin was so thin it broke off like soft peel.
When she cut into it with scissors, the inside was mushy and rotten. “It doesn’t stink, but I am completely f*cking disgusted,” she commented in the video.
Raquel stated that her stove was off and she’d only purchased the watermelon three days prior. Many commenters shared similar experiences, with some claiming to have seen foaming watermelons and others saying their Walmart-bought watermelons had also spoiled quickly. Some commenters speculated on the cause, suggesting fermentation due to damage or improper storage practices like freezing.
This isn’t the first time a questionable Walmart watermelon has gone viral on TikTok. Another user recently posted a video of a watermelon with a strange, plastic-like substance inside.
