I made this recipe for a cook out, it was a great, the contrast between the salty and the sweet was a real hit. The only thing I have to say is that it does not keep well so try to make it right before you serve.

I thought I would really like it, since my parents used to eat watermelon with salt sprinkled on it. But it was just okay.

I was a little afraid of the ingedients at first, but I'm alway's up for trying something new. I personally didn't like it much but my husband and guests raved about it and begged for the recipe. I'll make it for them again!!

Love this! We're not mint lovers so we cut back on the mint. Next time, I'll probably just leave it out, but that's a personal preference. Others at our picnic loved it the way it was. A definite keeper. Will make often

Absolutely the best cold salad. For my hubby who must have meat with everything, I topped his portion with fresh cooked bacon bits -- nice addition. I didn't have mint, but it still tasted great.

Made this for my mother in law's mother's day dinner and everyone was surprised at how much they actually liked this mix of flavours. Everyone started with a small taste and then went in for seconds and thirds. Will be added to my summer salad recipe book.

This salad is awesome. I first tried it at a luncheon, cautiously at first, but the flavours combined were just amazing. It was served on a white flat platter with the w/melon spread over & the onion, feta & olives over the top with small whole mint leaves scattered, this way you can dodge the mint if it is not your fav. We had it with peeled Prawns. I have not gone a summer not making it since.

This is a perfect summer salad for a evening bbq and its lively flavour is a wonderful mix with chicken, burgers or a mixed grill.

I've been making this for years. The recipe is great, but definetly an aquired taste!!! It's refreshing, tangy, salty & sweet. I really enjoy it every time I have it. All ingredients are necessary, but I have sub'd the feta w/ blue cheese in the past.

All the ingredients are necessary. The lime neutralizes the onion and the feta salts the watermelon. However, the ingredients are so unique not many want to try it but those that did, only 2/3 enjoyed it. I probably won't make this again but thanks for an interesting recipe.

Oh my! What a great combination. I did use Kalamata olives, which I am glad I did, and I cut down on the fresh mint (per everyone's advice) and this was a winner! A real surprise. I was leary of trying it, but what the heck! I liked every ingredient, so altogether they meld and make a wonderful, interesting salad!

Very unique salad, most people liked it (have made for potlucks etc). Definitely does not keep well, needs to be eaten the same day. Dried mint works just as well and I used more lime juice.

I figured we try this because it sounded interesting. It was not our cup of tea. Things were soggy, and the flavors just didn't fit our taste I guess.

This turned out to be absolutely fabulous -- a great refresher for the summer heat! We served it with a lovely barbecue of ours, and it was a terrific side dish. For those wondering, no, it doesn't keep well -- so make sure you don't make too much. Thanks for sharing!!
