You know why I eat you first? So that the honeydew, watermelon, grape, and pineapple wash your taste away and leave me with nothing but positive afterthoughts concerning my meal.
No one loves you, cantelope. You are the unfavorite. Even papaya is better than you, once it's dried.
I'd rather eat starfruit than more cantelope on its own. Hell, I'd rather eat plantain.
Where did you go so wrong, cantelope? Why couldn't you be more like your brothers and sisters? Why?

How about durian?

Didn't see durian on the linked site. Is durian a "trope" fruit? All I know is it smells pretty bad. When I lived in Thailand I got durian instead of mango with my sticky rice once. Never made that mistake again!

Gaia's Vengeance in produce-form.
LOL I know. When we used to go on visa runs to Malaysia there'd be signs in the hotels "No durian past this point." (sometimes)

Durian, the one fruit that's made me spew.
One of my best friends loves cantaloupe, but had to give it up because he was allergic to it.
My wife buys cantaloupe, strawberries, and sometimes pineapples and pears. But cantaloupe like crazy. If only I could get pears that weren't hard as a brick more often.

Hmm. Melons are actually one of the few fruits I can eat raw. Anything with a core or pit makes my throat swell up unless it's been thoroughly cooked. I miss plums the most.

The wink makes me think there is more to that than I'm getting... Hmm... I'm going to assume that it was perverted and laugh like I got it.
LOL!
Anyway, I shouldn't have said "one of the few", since in reality, the majority of fruits are safe for me (not just melons, but citrus fruits, berries, bananas, and grapes).

Considering the source... ;)

Ah, cantelope, my old nemesis. I despised you for years, but you slowly tempted me into accepting you. Finally, after I'd come to terms with you and accepted you, you backstab me with rashes, hives, and itching! Foul betrayer! I banish you and your conspirators strawberries, watermelon, kiwi, and bananas to the outer planes!

Take 1 water-melon and 1 bottle of vodka cut hole about the size of vodka bottles lid in water-mellon. Stick the vodka bottle in hole so vodka drains into water-mellon. When the vodka bottle is empty (can take some time), take the watermellon and chill it, when chilled, get totally smashed into oblivion with vodka water-mellony goodness.

I can vouch for this deliciousness. I did this in preparation for a Jimmy Buffett concert about 10 years ago, brought the melon into the venue, and had a grand old time!
Ah, the vodkamelon. Just one more way to improve upon nature...

Alcoholic Jelly (I think you Yanks call it Jello) is also lots and lots of fun.
Tip:
Do not do pour the alcohol into the Jelly straight after you pour the boiling water in, as the alcohol evaporates and you end up with some very expensive alcohol flavoured non alcoholic jelly.
Wait until it cools to room temp.
