What If Seeds Could Grow in Your Stomach?

It's everyone's favorite fruit. It's everyone's favorite sport. It's a watermelon seed spitting contest. Not only is it the most competitive event at your county fair, it might also be the most dangerous. Ever wonder what would happen if you accidentally swallowed a watermelon seed? Could a watermelon vine grow in your stomach? How could something so small survive the destructive pool of acid that sits in your stomach? How big would it grow? And would growing fruit in your body mean you'd never have to make another trip to the market? Or would it result in a very long stay in the hospital?

During their 1960s, as a child, my grandma told us kids if we swallowed a watermelon or apple seed, the fruit would grow in our stomach. The seed would leave the body like food does. This video was funny.
