Horned melon (also known as kiwano or African horned cucumber) is a fruit with orange skin and lime green, jelly-like flesh with a refreshingly fruity taste, and texture similar to a passionfruit. This weird fruit is a traditional food plant in Africa.
It’s high in magnesium and contains plenty of fiber and vitamin C. I thought it tasted like a mixture of cucumber and kiwi.
It is primarily used as a snack, smoothie, or salad, and rarely for decoration.
And how do you eat your Horned melon?
I sliced it in half and I grabbed a spoon and began to dig in :)
Stay awesome and Steem on!
