In this video I will show you the five things to look for when choosing a sweet, ripe and juicy Eastern Cantaloupe (muskmelon) at the grocery store. I will also show you how to cut and cube them.

The Eastern Cantaloupe is available early in summer from Florida to Pennsylvania and is slightly different than the more pretty, but less sweet, Western Melon which is available later on in the summer. This video will help you pick an Eastern Cantaloupe.

1. Color
