Juan Canary Melon August 7, 2008
Last night at Walmart I was picking up a few items including cantaloupe and honeydew when I spotted something I had never seen before. It was beside the cantaloupe and honeydew melons and was labeled as a Juan Canary Melon. It was a bright yellow melon that was larger than both the honeydew melons and the cantaloupe that surrounded it.

Always ready to try something new, I plopped it in my cart. At home I cut the melon open exactly like a honeydew. To my delight the melon smelled amazing. It smelled very sweet like a ripe cantaloupe but the coloring looked more like a honeydew. I cut it up and tasted it…I must have gotten one that was the perfect ripeness because it smelled delicious and was very very tasty.
What have you tried recently that you have never tried before??
I just picked up one from wal-mart last night. I love trying new things. I have never seen or heard about this fruit before. I’m getting ready to eat it for breakfast.
yum, it’s sweet and good like a honeydew melon but sweeter to me. i don’t think I pick good honeydew melons anyway, but this looks like one on the inside.
