I've had a few really good cantaloupes in my life. When they're good, they're really good. But the overwhelming majority of cantaloupe I've encountered is really blah.

Anyone else feeling a little wistful that cantaloupe season is almost over?

You won't miss it much. Honeydew is the money melon.

I've never been able to get into honeydew much. I've tried.

I generally agree, but once I had a ripe freshly picked one. It was delicious.

A good, sweet, firm one w/ no grittiness is a wonderful thing, it's true.

Finding a good cantaloupe is one of the most stressful endeavors I know.
