Dang. Now you are hitting my weak spot.

The best popsicle in Tokyo is the "suica" or watermelon slice. It's like a real wedge of watermelon with a green (musk melon flavored?) rind at the bottom by the stick, and actual seeds(!). The seeds, exactly the same size as watermelon seeds, are made of chocolate.

Wow, that sounds so interesting and good.

I'll have to post a photo on my Twitter feed. My daughter and I tried to make a Vine video last summer where the popsicle watermelon morphed into a real slice on a stick, but I couldn't manage the editing [daddy, shame}
