Named for a castle in Italy, the true cantaloupe is a European melon that is not exported. American "cantaloupes" are actually muskmelons. The pale orange flesh is extremely juicy and sweet. Selection: Choose "lopes" that are heavy for their size, with fruity aroma, and thick, well-raised netting over straw-colored rind. The blossom end should give to gentle pressure.
