✗ The myth everyone repeats
If you drink soda or eat Mentos while eating watermelon, your stomach will explode or burst.
✓ What is actually true
Your stomach is designed to hold and process various foods and liquids safely. The combination of watermelon and soda may cause bloating and gas discomfort due to carbonation and sugar content, but cannot cause stomach rupture. The stomach has expandable walls and can safely accommodate large volumes.
