29. I never did

like watermelons. They aren't sweet enough, and it's a hassle to cut the melon into slices, and to always have to spit the seeds out as I eat one. I did used to like watermelon-flavored Trix yogurt when I was a kid, but that's it.
As far as fried chicken goes, I like it (preferably KFC), but I don't have it that often--usually my family has Popeye's once a week when I'm back home for the summer and winter. When I'm upstate for school, I can't have it at all because there are none of those stores in the entire town. And fried chicken isn't even my top dinner choice; I'm a pizza nut.
