It was...cleaner but sweeter than honeydew or watermelon...okay, it was like cantaloupe only not as strong and maybe not as musky. And SWEET! It was weaker than melon drinks or candy.
The expensive melons cost that much because they raise them to be perfectly round, with a beautiful net, and they cut other melons off the same tree so the melons that stay get all the nutrients. I kind of wonder what Japan is doing with all their imperfect fruit?
