Use:

Canary Melons vary in shape from oval to oblong, almost similar to a bright yellow Honeydew Melon. The pale green to cream-colored skin protects the juicy pale orange flesh. Its firm, crisp flesh offers a very distinctive delicately sweet flavor, which unlike its appearance tastes more like a Cantaloupe. Melissa’s Organic Canary Melons are grown without the use of harmful fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides. They are delicious eaten by themselves, included in fruit salads, or added to drinks, such as fruit punches or daiquiris. For a new twist, try one with a sprinkle of ginger, salt, or a squeeze of lemon or lime.

Selection, Storage & Handling:

Melissa's Organic Canary Melons are hand-selected for excellent quality. Choose firm melons with a sweet fragrance. Look for fruit heavy for its size, yielding slightly under pressure. Keep cut or ripe fruit in refrigerator for up to three days. Ripen at room temperature.
