And we're back with more
melons from China I'm gonna review
These two I think
Side-by-side this one I have no idea what this is, but it's like it looks almost like a little ostrich egg.
It's got a nice sweet smell to it. And I have this one they've got no clue what this is
It looks maybe like he took like a Pepino Melon and stretched it out,
but
Yeah, also
it smells like a melon which is good because if I
Weren't sure I was kind of like unsure about this thing that it might be a squash. Maybe it is
maybe it's a sweet squash or something, but
Yeah, hopefully it's a melon. So first I'm gonna start with this this white one here.
Cutting it with this like this weird thing that makes a slice as I'm cutting in which I don't really want that slice,
But see what we can do
There we go, that's a nice color it looks kind of like cantaloupe in there like a little orange color to it.
It's not super
strong smelling
And where's my slice? There? It is. Yeah
That's just great. But like it's got rind on it. So I don't want to eat that slice.
I'd rather just like take a like a bite out of it.
Very small like little little seeds in there.
All right, so it's just skin
This is really good at peeling it though.
That's good !
very musky, it tastes like
Cantaloupe tastes like cantaloupe like a very
Sweet musky cantaloupe.
No tartness, the sweetness is quite high. I'd say like maybe like an eight out of ten.
The muskiness is quite high.
I feel like it's kind of like missing something that a cantaloupe has but I'm not sure exactly what it is.
There's like a little like a slight flavor difference,
But it is still quite similar the best thing about this that's different than a cantaloupe is the texture,
It's crispy, you know cantaloupe can be like very like soft this one.
It's a little crunch to it not like crazy
crunchy but it's a little more toothsome than
Just a regular
Cantaloupe I kind of like that about it. So
Flavor-wise it's about the same not a little bit different but about the same but you know texture wise quite different. I like that.
so next let's talk about
This one. this is the other one
I've no clue what this is and I've no clue what any of these are
So again, like if you know what these are then yeah, let me let me know in the comments.
cause i have no idea
So let's cut this guy.
Whoa!
I have a feeling this is going to be like the ones that I've reviewed
last time the green ones.
The ones that had tomato taste because this looks very similar on the inside. Yeah. So here's here's this one
You can see this one is stretched out. It's long
but
Internally, it looks very similar similar coloring around the seeds. So similar coloring to the flesh.
There's also this one which had the watermelon appearance on the outside.
This one does not have that so much but you can almost see it a little bit. So maybe these are all the same.I
Have no idea but if they are they vary greatly in shape and size. Who knows
Maybe I'll bite into this and it won't taste like tomatoes. It'll taste like
Something completely different. Yeah, if you didn't watch the last episode
those little green melons for some reason taste like cantaloupe or uh, no not can't let honeydew and
tomatoes
Strange, but yeah, let's see if this one doesn't.
Yep, I
Think it's the same for like some kind of like
Variant on the the same fruit. Yeah, so I don't really have anything to add
Good to see that last one sweetness you get from like a cucumber
the flavor you'd get from like a very like
mild honeydew,
but
With the addition of like a flavor of like lycopene, you know a flavour of like savory tomato taste
Which is bizarre, but it's in there. It's not the main flavor, but it is a
Portion of it. It's mostly like mild honeydew with you know
It's kind of got tomato thrown into the lot which is a little weird for me eating it straight out,
but I think this would have a lot of use I
Said I said it before I'll say it again
this would have like a lot of use if you wanted to make like a salad or something and put
melon, and it like some people do like you can put like cantaloupe on a salad goes well vinegar and stuff like that this would
Definitely do that this would you know have like even more of a savory flavor that would meld well with salads.
Eating it like this though. It's kind of weird. There's going to be a preview at the end of this video
