Mustard on Watermelon? Lizzo Approves

There are certain foods that are just better during the summertime, and watermelon is one of those foods. Watermelon and a hot summer’s day are the perfect pair. Maybe you add sugar or salt on top, but for me, watermelon is perfect all on its own. That’s why I need to air something out with Lizzo, who seems to enjoy mustard on her watermelon. Would you be willing to try this odd combination? I know I wouldn’t.

Lizzo’s TikTok page is filled with feel-good videos that promote body positivity, happiness, and fun. However, one of her latest TikToks had me asking a bunch of questions.

“I’ve been seeing this on the internet,” she says, as she put a dollop of mustard on freshly cut watermelon. She dives in, and to my surprise, she went back for a second bite, and then a third.

“I don’t understand,” she says, as she continues to enjoy this bizarre snack.

TikTok makes people do a lot of quirky things, and I know I’ve been quoted as saying I’ll try anything once, but I don’t know if I can get on board with this trend. I’m that weirdo that doesn’t even put mustard on her hot dogs. If I never saw mustard ever again, I would be happy about it, so this is one foodie trend I don’t see myself doing.

How about you? Do you think you’ll be pouring mustard over your watermelon slices this summer or sticking to the OG way of enjoying this fruit?
