Watermelon and Furadan

We all love watermelons right? It is a must as dessert at weddings and
birthdays, or at the 5-star hotel buffets. But do you realize that
WATERMELON IS DANGEROUS?

This is because the watermelon planters put Furadan, a powerful
insecticide (a poison), into the soil before planting the watermelon to
kill and keep away insects, especially ants. Experts confirm that
Furadan is active for one whole year (12 months), and is most powerful
and effective during the first 90 days. The problem is this: The
watermelons mature and are picked after 55 days, when the Furadan is
still powerful, and a lot of it is INSIDE THE WATERMELONS! Meaning the
watermelon is filled with poison!Furadan especially DAMAGES THE KIDNEYS
the organs which have to filter pollution from the blood!

From now on I will stick to the bananas and papayas, for the sake of my
poor kidneys, thank you!
