Knowledge is recognizing that tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

I'm not sure many fruits are not basically the same thing, a softish gel of sugar that often tastes sweet and has purported health benefits.

In Cincy, we'd get these large ribbed catelopes in August that were excellent, folks called them "Indiana melons".  In France, there is a region that features really good cantelope, they are smallish.  The typical western cantelope we get at "Kroger" is pretty bland, to me.

My favorite is really good fresh just picked apples.  Among the worst are old soft mealy apples.

I'm sorry, replace 'quality' with 'cost.' 

Cantaloupe and honeydew are cheap garbage fruit.
Fixed.

Much like tomatoes, super market cantaloupe is picked green and never fully ripens. Crappy.

Ripe cantaloupe with pepper is one of my favorite summer foods. But for whatever reason, I really don't care for watermelon.

The regional melon dialect kinda cracks me up. Around here,  there are people who use "cantaloupe" and "muskmelon" as interchangeable terms (kinda correct), and there are people who swear up and down that "muskmelon" is a term for a variety of melon originating from Muscatine, IA. While Muscatine melons are a "thing," they're just cantaloupe from Muscatine.

Yeah, we go to the farmer's market or fruit stands for stuff. Publix is decent, but it's just not the same.

Had some nice scrambled eggs with onion, tomato, spinach, and cheddar. A couple slices of thick cut homemade bacon. And a glass of OJ .

@Drew4UTk 's scrambled eggs were a SUCCESS!!!
Daughter and I both enjoyed them - I didn't find the philo dough so just greased the muffin tin and made biscuits.  Also had some extra bacon

Bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, cottage cheese, red bell pepper, and green onions went into the scrambled eggs

You should try your hand at egg Benedict.

Got a little win on this front.....the local Panda Express opens at 8:30 am now.  Because there's no reason for it not to.

The message is spreading!

Panda Express for breakfast sounds horrible. 

I sometimes like to hike in the wee early AM hours though, after which I might be ready for "lunch" at what would normally be a breakfast time. Like 10 or so.

Breakfast is the only meal of the day that I tend to view with the same kind of traditionalized reverence that most people associate with Lunch and Dinner. I like to eat breakfast alone, and almost never before noon...
The food factor should always be massive: four Bloody Marys, two grapefruits, a pot of coffee, Rangoon crepes, a half-pound of either sausage, bacon, or corned beef hash with diced chiles, a Spanish omelette or eggs Benedict, a quart of milk, a chopped lemon for random seasoning, and something like a slice of Key lime pie, two margaritas, and six lines of the best cocaine for dessert…
