How many cups in 1 lb of green watermelon rind?

8 oz = cup so, 16oz. in pound =2 cups fluid?

But if you don't want to pulverize your watermelon, here are some alternatives.

I just pulled out my handy kitchen scale, a four cup (or one quart) measuring bowl with one cup incremental markers, a knife, a large spoon, and of course a watermelon.

My watermelon weighed about eight pounds including rind.

I placed the measuring bowl on the scale and tare/zero'd the scale.

Next I cut up and measured/weighed my watermelon. Below are my results.

First, I using a large soup spoon to scoop out random chunks, most too big to eat in one bite. When the scale hit one pound I jiggled (shook?) the bowl to level out the fruit. It was pretty close to full. So in large uneven and oddly-shaped chunks, one pound rendered nearly four cups of volume.

I just cut up a pound of watermelon into bite sized pieces (approximately one inch cubes) and it filled a just over three cups in my four cup measure, so I would say three cups conservatively.

I imagine if I had done a smaller dice, we would find the results closer to the liquid measure of 16 ounces which equals 2 cups in most liquids.

Now go play with size and uniformity and report your findings back to us!
