Whip and Stir

Yeah, you got that right! Some weird agriculturist or botanist had cross-bred the melon to the lemon and the result...A Lemlon!



I do not know if what variety it is. If it is a variety of lemon or melon but it went on sale last week in UK.

Tesco, who sold the fruit said it resembles the honeydew melon but has "zesty, fresh" taste of a traditional lemon and said it was produced from Spain.

It is the latest in a series of exotic fruits to be sold in UK supermarkets which would only a couple of years ago seemed odd or weird to most shoppers.

Lemlon, which is being sold for £1.99, has a high level of citric acid content which is double than that of the regular melons which resulted to a tangy after-taste.
