If you don’t believe, just do some dishes according to my “Secret Recipes” and then taste them if they are good. Today I will teach you two “Secret Recipes”. If you like, I will teach you more. No.1 Cold Watermelon Skin. Main ingredients: watermelon skin, minced garlic, chicken essence, sugar, salt and sesame oil. Step 1 Peel thick green skin of the watermelon and cut it into pieces. Make sure that you cut the green skin deeply. Otherwise, you won’t bite them. Step 2 Mix watermelon skin pieces with minced garlic, chicken essence, sugar, salt and sesame oil. Last, enjoy it.

Then try to eat it raw, Glommy. I am sure that you won't be disappointed. And the watermelon skin can cure prickly heat too.

My parents told me that they used to spread it (make sure that the flesh has been cut off) on my back when I was young. After a while, you need to wash your body. Otherwise, your body will be sticky.
