    You should always wash melons and all produce before you peel or cut them up. Many unwashed hands have touched them before you. Most cases of food contamination come from unwashed produce. I worked in grocery industry 25 years.

    I did not know about pressing on the honeydew's belly button! I will do that when I go to the grocery store next!

    Love this Honeydew video. I needed the information and the laughs were a plus. It was funny hearing you want to take a bite out of that slice right away, because it must have smelled delicious. The funny face at the end was humorous too. Thank you:)

      I have just started growing a few Honeydew melon plants, in my new garden beds. However I have had problems with the soil and with some invisible insects eating the leaves off my Honeydew melons as well as my cucumbers. Although I do have one small, but very cute honeydew melon growing on one of my plants. 😊

    One of my favorite fruits but stopped buying because I always ended up with dry and hard or too mushy. Same with cantaloupe. Can't wait to try this out.

    I threw the seeds from one i ate in the spring into my garden. Well, they took over (luckily, everything else was in pots and able to be moved. ) Well, now, they're getting big and I'm hoping this video will help me with picking them at the right level of ripe.

    Perfect answer to my question of how to know if a honeydew melon e is ripe.
    If I buy one that isn't quite ready is there a way to store them so they do ripen please? My cat loves them and if they aren't just right she turns her nose up and walks away. (That's how I know if they are ok but it's too late cos I've already cut into them.
    I'm looking forward to checking out your other videos. Thank you

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  Месяц назад +1

      As far as I know, a honeydew melon will not ripen after it's picked from the vine. If you let it sit on your kitchen counter, it will get softer, but not sweeter. So, you're better off buying one that is ripe at the store.

    • @juliab4714
      @juliab4714 12 дней назад

      @@FoodChainTV that makes sense cos that's what happened to me. Maybe buying from a market as opposed to a supermarket is the way forward on that one. My cat loves melon but has a small window of what she considers to be deemed acceptable

    A farmer taught me the stem trick one day while i was standing at the melons doing my Asian tap and smell 😂 i do the push now too.

    • @kaylacombs6254
      @kaylacombs6254 2 месяца назад

      I think that's more for watermelons. For cantaloupe and honeydew I always look at the color, smell and slight softness

    Such helpful videos is it possible that the unripe melon would ripen after keeping for a few days the one l had delivered today is obviously unripe anyway thankyou for all your hard work 😊

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  Год назад +3

      Yes, you can leave it on your kitchen counter and wait for it to ripen. It will either ripen, or rot, depending on ambient temp and humidity. But, most likely, it will ripen.

    So once you cut one can it ripen?

    • @FoodChainTV
      @FoodChainTV  11 месяцев назад +1

      Once it's cut, I don't think it can ripen. But the starches can break down into simple sugars, so it might get softer and somewhat slightly sweeter.

    The stem end should be the belly button. It’s like the umbilical cord which attaches to the belly button.

    • @teeshebas2478
      @teeshebas2478 2 месяца назад

      If you cut it across instead of lengthwise, you can rotate it on your cutting board (or rotate your cutting board) to cut the rind off like you do with watermelon (taking the seeds out first). I do this for cantaloupe as well.
