If you don’t like the regular watermelons, you can have a trip to southwestern China and try the tiny ones.
The world’s smallest watermelons are now being grown in the city of Chungking. The mini watermelons measure around the same size of a coin.

Expert tasters say that the new snack is sourer and tastes like tomatoes compared to regular watermelon. The so-called 'thumb watermelon' is originally from South America. It goes by the name of 'cucamelon', with its insides resembling a cucumber.
