In order to choose a cantaloupe that is ripe, the first thing you should do is smell it. When a cantaloupe is ripe, it will give off a sweet smell that smells, well, like a cantaloupe. The outer rind will be golden/orange in color. If the cantaloupe is not quite ripe, the rind will be a green color. You should also gently squeeze the cantaloupe. A ripe fruit will be soft, but not too soft (as this is a sign of it being over ripe). Start by squeezing at the end opposite the stem as this area will get soft first. Lastly, keep in mind that cantaloupe continue to ripen after you purchase them. If you let an unripe cantaloupe sit for a few days at room temperature, it should ripen within a few days.
