have you ever seen such a thing? i sure hadn’t… but thanks to my awesome new job, i have been exploring all kinds of new produce. this is called a “snake melon” but also formally known as an “armenian cucumber.” the one i bought looks kind of like a question mark… yeah?
these interesting melons can grow up to 3-feet long! and did you know that all cucumbers are melons?! i sure didn’t. something else new i learned, recently. makes sense, though – right?!
😉
this cucumber was more like a melon, for sure. had a similar texture to an english cucumber, but with a little less “crispness” and a much sweeter flavour. not too sweet, but noticeably different than a regular cucumber. i totally chowed down on some! i hope you all get the chance to, as well! 😉
