Horny melons

Sorry, couldn't resist that title (in fact I'm hoping it will give our stats a boost). Some readers may be disappointed to find that it is, however, merely a reference to our breakfast this morning: the African Horned Melon.




Pretty weird, huh? Sadly the flavour wasn't as exciting as the appearance, and made me think of snozcumbers. You can't win them all.

  1. Snozcumbers! Brilliant Nomenclature. Snozcumber allysensis. I also thought of a cuccitrus, or a zestcumber, as they're slightly lemony. But to on the safe side we better stick to the Afrian Horned Melon or Hornymelanus afrikensus as David Attenborough might say.
