For Christmas I got a cool cheese grater (love it) and this melon cutter. I love cantaloupe so its not surprising that I got the cutter even though I really did not know what it was at first. I decided to test it yesterday since I was in the mood for cantaloupe.Even though it is plastic it cut the melon nicely. It also can be used for scooping out the seeds. I thought it worked much better than a spoon. It says you can use it to peel the cantaloupe but I use a knife which is easier.
Out of 10 I would give it a 7. Its useful but not a must have in my kitchen.
I have been really busy cooking and writing for Cooking Light - it is so much fun. My Mom has taken some squid out of the freezer for my dinner tonight. Yum I can't wait. I still have not decided how I am going to cook it but if I can't think of anything better I like it just in a pan with some EVOO and salt (I'm not a fan of pepper). Sometimes I bread it or make a sauce or pasta.
See you soon. I have a smoothie recipe to show you.
Cantaloupe is really good! Thanks for your honest review of the cutter. I'll have to look for one of those sometime.

Looking forward to your smoothie recipe. I make my own yogurt and I make yogurt shakes a lot. Interesting reading about the cantaloupe cutter. I love that melon, too. Think I'll pass and stick with a knife & spoon. No room!
