I'm not 100% sure but I would say watermelon. Watermelon is predominantly water like most melons.

Answer:

The answer is: Cherries.

Explanation:

The glycemic index is a numerical value that is assigned to a food to describe the glycemic response our body has after its consumption. That is, the higher the glycemic index, the higher and faster elevation of blood glucose produces a food after consumption.
