Honeydew, Cantaloupe or both? (taste, salt, better, refrigerator)

I rather eating Honeydew but I can eat both

Nice big muskmelon, big, oval melons with deep ribbing on them. We used to call them Indiana melons; no idea if that's an actual melon variety or not, or if it's just a popular melon variety grown in Indiana.

cantaloupe for me. Can't stand honeydew.

I don't like the melons that look like cantaloupes but with the ridges. I've heard them referred to as muskmelons and also crenshaw melons.

I like to eat cantaloupe with cottage cheese

My mother used to like hers that way too. All I can say is ewwwwwwww!

I like most melons, especially fresh mixed as a melon fruit salad with pineapple and grapes.

Oh man I love low fat cottage cheese with musk melon. Pour some Pico Pica over the top and BAM!!! Oh yeah.


Also love vanilla ice cream with the melon during the summer.

I like cantaloupe with cottage cheese, too.

Melons are never good unless its the middle of Summer.

Not really fond of either of them, and I'd never buy one for myself. But I'll eat it if it is served to me.

Well, check that. I always used to stop and buy a couple when passing through Green River, Utah, to just eat whole on the side of the road. Most things are pretty good if you can get them fresh-picked.

If I buy one at a supermarket, I have to let it sit out for a week or so to ripen, when it might at least be edible, but then I forget it and it goes bad.

I prefer cantaloupe.
