Isn't the watermelon a needed part of summer? If there isn't watermelon, it's just not summer. But did you know about the 'yellow spot' or 'the ground spot'? It is a yellowish spot underneath the watermelon that shows that it has...

Watermelon and Cantaloupe

celticeagle @celticeagle (189915) • Boise, Idaho 21 Jun

For years I just picked a cantaloupe that looked good to me. No special way of seeing if it was ripe was available to me. Same with watermelon. Then I learned that you want to check where the vine and the cantaloupe come together....

Mixed melon or melon mixup?

Wendy @jerzgirl (9384) • United States 21 Feb 23

Exactly how is a single chunk of cantaloupe in a sea of honeydew chunks "mixed"? The label said it was mixed melon. It's more like the cantaloupe is a token chunk to give the impression of being mixed. It's hilarious, actually, as...

I Want Cantaloupe

Jo Ann @akalinus (44366) • United States 21 Aug 18

I suddenly thought about cantaloupe. It is a luscious sweet melon. I remembered the days of my childhood when we bought cantaloupes from the fields. I think they were three for a dime for the little ones. I wish I had some right...

Do you eat melons?

B @pitsipeahie (5758) 2 Feb 18

Do you eat melons, cantaloupes or honeydews? I'm actually quite confused with melons and cantaloupes as they somewhat look the same to me. (But I think they belong to the same specie/family) But the photo above is what I eat and...

At least I think that I do. Our cantaloupe or musk melon as dad used to call it, is thriving and has already sent out runners. At the moment, I think that we will have four melons from at least one of the plants. We have three...

celticeagle @celticeagle (189915) • Boise, Idaho 6 Oct 15
