Banana melon, some 15 inches long. It tasted like a really sweet cantaloupe. I am SO tired of melons that taste like cantaloupe. What ever happened to old-fashioned watermelons that were sweet, juicy and red inside?

This fragrant beauty was packed in the latest CSA box. The Tigger melon is an Armenian heirloom variety, and is sweeter than any melon I’ve ever tasted. It’s about the size of a softball, with the consistency and flavor of a cantaloupe.
It was almost too pretty to eat. But I persevered.
