The one with ridges is called a ';Musk Melon'; and the smooth is a ';Cantaloupe';. Pretty similar, but my boyfriend says the Musk Melon has a ';gamier'; taste to it than cantaloupe, not as sweet. I guess, thus, the name!WHats the difference between a melon that has ridges and a melon that has a smooth surface?
the melon with ridges is still unripe but it can be eaten.the one with smooth surface means its ripe and much more sweeter than the one with ridges. hope this answers your question?:)
There are two different varieties of melon the smooth skin ones are honeydew and the ridge ones are Galia type(there are many other varieties) I am speaking as an expert as I used to be a fruit specialist and worked in Covert Market,London.
