Product Description
For over 3,000 years this African Horned Melon has been fascinating us all. The spiky shell contains a bright emerald flesh. It's flavor is reminiscent of a cucumber with notes of melon and lime. This fruit's versatility extends beyond eating. Cut in half and scoop the flesh out of the melon and fill the cavities with your favorite food or drink.

Could grow it WAY cheaper...,
By DJ (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Melissa's Fresh Horned Melons, Set of 4 (Misc.)
Honestly... certain things are a huge rip off, and this is one of them. Horned melons you can grow yourself, in almost any climate zone. I live in northern Wisconsin, planted some seeds in doors in about March, and moved them outside in June... had fruit this summer. They have almost the same growth pattern as cucumbers... fast, viney, thorny and whatnot. If you want to have this fruit, buy a pouch of seeds from somewhere online, grow them yourself, eat some... and save some seeds for the following year. I also had success having it fruit in a five gallon pot, in my bedroom next to a east facing window... Took a little bit longer, but they did it!ALSO, these pictures don't show the truth behind the horns... they are sharp, they hurt, they will make you bleed... I suggest getting some thick winter gloves on and just take scissors and cut the points off.

Why pay the premium?,

My title does not refer to the price, although kiwanos are becoming more common in grocery stories. Rather, my title asks why pay for an expensive fruit when you can just eat the seeds of a cucumber? Sure, everyone should try a kiwano at least once if only to discover a fruit that tastes like a vegetable. Or you might want to use one or two for artistic effect in a fruit bowl. But its certainly not going to replace the orange as a common fruit.
