Canary Melon

Hey Raych, what is that oblongey yellow thing you have in your hand?

Oh this little old thing? Only the latest in exotic fruitstuffs, the canary melon.
.

Sounds island-y. Revel in awe, at any rate. It is a whole new thing.

.Except...that soothing green color looks vaguely familiar. As do those seeds...

.

You're in for a world of spoilers, my friends. Kevin Spacey is Keyser Soze, Soylent green is people, and a canary melon is a honeydew.

.

Not 'tastes like,' not 'can stand in for if the supermarket is out of,' not 'is the marginally juicier identical twin of'...oh no wait, yes. That last one.

.

But I've always felt that honeydew would be a little bit awesomer if it were a little bit more likely to splash onto my shoe. The universe has heard my cry.

Ratings:

Tastiness: The tastiness of a honeydew + 1, so 7

Ease of Extraction: Reasonably thin-skinned and easy to cut, the seeds practically scrape themselves out, I own a melon-baller (of sorts), 8

Overall Nommability: 56 (right? Math is hard)
