Fruit of the day: Dinosaur Eggs

I wonder, will it be a boy or a girl, or a velociraptor?

So a friend took me to find the lady who had boxes of these dinosaur eggs for sale. She insisted on calling them "melon chino" (Chinese melon) even though they were so obviously the offspring of a gigantic lizard. 

Once you cut into them, you'll see they look just like a cantaloupe. The flesh is lighter in color, and I think the flavor is lighter as well. Aside from being the kind of fruit that some eight year old boys could be obsessed with, they are also a very handy size. Just right for one person for lunch.
