Why the hate on Honeydew? Honeydew is awesome!
I'll admit, sometimes you get a completely tasteless one. But get one at the sweet spot of ripeness...my god...it's ambrosia.
I hear this argument about honeydew all the time, that it can be flavorless.
Well that's the same with most fruit, it's called "ripeness" and not every fruit ripens at the same rates, so you tend to get some less sweet than others.
I think people just hate the "investment" of cutting open a whole melon and it not being good, so instead of learning how to tell how ripe it is, they just swear off the fruit.
Fine, more for me.
You can get a bad version of almost any food. It doesn't mean anything. It's really common to get a tasteless orange, but that doesn't stop me from buying or liking oranges.
It made me stop buying oranges I'll tell ya that much

I actually do like it but I do find that it's just kind of a worse version of cantaloupe
I came looking for the bojack reference
I’ve never had a honeydew that wasn’t delicious. Granted that I’ve been out of the states a few years now… is this like the red delicious apple where it used to be good, but farmers have bred the deliciousness out of them to look better aesthetically?
They have to be ripe. It's like people who don't like avocado's, I assume they ate a few bad one's because avocado's are super finicky.
I love honeydew. I didn't know it was unpopular.
In Europe it's super popular, often paired with Serrano ham. That said, I find the taste so incredibly vile and disgusting, I believe it may be something like that herb that tastes like soap to many people.
This is like calling a lemon that yellow sour fruit. Eat more cilantro, people.
I wasn't sure what it was called in English, thanks for jogging my memory.
The comment was meant to be a bit tongue-in-cheek. Stay fresh like Koriander. ✌️
Mint's the fresh way to go.
It is mostly liked you people. Although apparently the fruit are better in the topics than the ones we get here. I can't eat it though. It just tastes like it's rotting in my mouth.
This is the first time in my long life I realized that some people might not like the godly nectar that is honeydew melon.
I do not concern myself with their I'll placed disgust as it means the honeydew supply is in contested.
Honeydew is good you freaks!
Only time most people have had honeydew is in a supermarket fruit bowl and it's dry and unpleasant. It is great fresh
I wouldn’t say dry usually but those fruit bowls do always just end up tasting only of cantaloupe. Which is also a good melon but not when you want an actual mix.
This kind of underlines what a needy sociopathic narcissist the god of the bible is.
I MADE THE GAME AND YOU ALL MUST PAYcough I mean play. You all must play my game.
Almost everything in the bible underlines this.
I read multiple bibles as a young kid not for religious reasons but because i was bored.
I did not fully comprehend that jaweh was the god from our church or that i was supposed to read them as facts. In some parts i was sure he was just the main villain.
Lots of the time when people bash a fruit it's because they haven't had a good one. I will say that most honeydews I've had were plain, but a good honeydew tastes great!
I was a honeydew hater until I actually had a good one. I guess it's hard to get at the perfect ripeness or something because the majority I've tasted had a bad texture or were tasteless.
I mean you can tell if it's ripe or not by pressing against the part where the stem used to be- if there's a little give, you should be good.
I feel like people who hate Honeydew are like people who hate bananas but only have eaten fully green bananas. Like yea, if you don't let it ripen it's gonna suck.

I tried this but my dick popped all the way inside I think I pressed too hard

Meanwhile I only like bananas before they're completely ripe. When they're completely ripe, they taste sickly sweet to me, almost rotten. The texture and more tart taste, just before it's completely ripe is perfect imo.
You're worse than Ted Bundy.
It also matters where you live, to a point. Living far away from producers means you get fruit that was picked very green, with no ripening on the plant. Even after shelf ripening, the flavor profile will be milder compared to a plant ripened fruit.

Hey, this isn't a Star Trek meme man. Stay in your lane. XD
But seriously, love honeydew, and knowledge. I would screw it up for everyone
Honey dew is delicious when it's vine ripened and slightly warmed in the sun.
A red delicious would have the same effect.
lol even evil snek is like yuck. XD
At least it's not cantaloupe. Fuckin gross musky bitch-melon, that is.
Honey, do this. But we can't elope.
Or a butternut squash. Those things aren't buttery, nutty, and with how fibrous they are, squashy. It's the "Greenland" of fruits.

Honeydew is unpopular because when you buy cheap honeydew, they can include too much of the rind without you being able to tell until you eat it.
