    Surprised watermelons are above apples, is there some cuisine out there that uses them heavily, or am I overestimating the popularity of apples I wonder

      This is by metric ton, so watermelon scores particularly high because they grow pretty big, and they’re quite heavy (since they’re mostly water). You need a lot less volume of apple to get the same nutrition and/or flavour effect.
