You'd have this delicious melon I found at Whole Foods. I believe it was the cranshaw melon which had a pale yellow smooth skin with an orange flesh similar to that of a cantaloupe. The odd thing was the flavor profile had the sweetness of a honeydew (very honey like), but a whole intensely floral thing going on like the cantaloupe.
The key to picking cantaloupe is the smell test which works with the cranshaw. If it's incredibly floral, it's good to go. If it smells like nothing, take a pass. Also, the skin should have a slight give and no wrinkles on the smooth skin melon. Last tip, with all veg/fruits - the melon should feel heavy for it's size - more water I assume which means it's not old and dried out like Sharon Stone...I have no idea what that meant.
Any who, as comic book guy would say - best...melon...ever.

What if a honeydew and a cantaloupe listened to some Barry White...
