Hi Larry

I’m not 100% sure if I’m the originator of this metaphor. But as you said: I didn’t find any older reference. Regarding your question about the feedback for your audience: No, I never got such feedback. I don’t understand why this should be racially insensitive, but maybe I overlook something.

Your post here is almost 10 years old, but Google still found it for me!
I just presented a variation of this metaphor to a client to describe the disconnect between external and internal metrics. I added a picture of a watermelon to illustrate the point.
One member of the audience responded to me privately to say he found the watermelon reference to be racially insensitive.

I'm curious — have you ever received that feedback when sharing this metaphor?
Did you originate this metaphor? Yours was the earliest reference I could find online.

Best regards, and thanks for your perspective.
