Name that fruit/vegetable

Frequently when we eat lunch at school, or dinner at a restaurant, the question of "What is that?" will come to us.  Sometimes it comes with a smile on our face, and sometimes a less pleasant look.

About a month ago the roadside trucks started selling a lot of what I thought were lemon cucumbers.

Right?  I couldn't understand why there were soooo many though.  Till a friend enlightened me.  It's not a cucumber, it's a sweet melon!

Yummmy.  Emboldened by this revelation I bought another mysterious fruit/vegetable.

Another success!

The skin is so thin you just need a vegetable peeler.

Scoop out the insides.

And then you have delicious melon.  Yes!
