During weeks 24-36 of treatment for hep c my husband craved watermelon day in and day out -- it definitely helped with his hydration, and helped me, as it didn't require cooking.

I was really disappointed when the doc told me that a lot of fruits need to be avoided; but especially watermelon, oranges, bananas.  But the biggest downer was grapes, which he termed as 'sugar bombs'.
