My family didn't ate melons, they weren't opposed to them, but they never bought them, probably cuz they never fitted in the fridge, so growing up I just occasionally ate watermelons, and only tried melons a few time, which I didn't like. It wasn't a strong foul taste nor anything but it didn't click with me.
So anyways last week I ate melon and I really liked it, it tasted exactly the same as I remembered it but I now love the taste.

I had a golden honeydew for the first time a couple months ago, they're amazing. I've been eating one every couple of weeks since.
Tip for anyone struggling to tell when to cut them, they're ready when they make a squeaky sound when you slide a thumb across the skin. If it's slides too easy it's not ready.
