A cantaloupe is a mellon -- tan/grey-green color outside and orange inside. When fully ripe, the cantaloupe is juicy and slightly sweet. Often eaten with breakfast here in the US or cut into chunks and combined with watermelon and honeydew melon (light green in color) chunks as a fruit salad or even a light dessert.
