Do you know who Jed Pakwan Black Beauty is?

It is the name of the watermelon Carmina had ordered through Metro Mart application at the Landmark to purchase it.

On the label of the watermelon it says Jed Pakwan Black Beauty price of PHP 193.25 ($3.87) the weight is 3.04 kg for unit price PHP 63.50.


The best part from the price Jed Pakwan Black Beauty is sweet with seeds.


For all we know during summer season we prefer to eat fresh fruits the reason why I prefer yellow over red watermelon. In the Philippines the yellow watermelon is sweet and small not like the red ones are expensive and we tend not to be able to finish it.

Note:

Carmina is not selling or advertising for Jed Pakwan Black Beauty just wanted to eat yellow watermelon.
