cantaloupe is an excellent source of vitamin A on account of its concentrated beta-carotene content. Once inside the body, beta-carotene can be converted into vitamin A. Beta-carotene has also been the subject of extensive research in relationship to cancer prevention and prevention of oxygen-based damage to cells.
Cantaloupe also emerged from our food ranking system as an excellent source of vitamin C. Vitamin C functions as an antioxidant in the water-soluble areas of the body. So, between its beta-carotene and vitamin C content, cantaloupe has all areas covered against damage from oxygen free radicals. Vitamin C stimulates white cells to fight infection, directly kills many bacteria and viruses, and regenerates Vitamin E after it has been inactivated by disarming free radicals.
I recently purchased a pound of your dried cantaloupe for the first time and I have to tell you it is the best I have ever tasted! In fact, I just ordered another 4 pounds. I found your cantaloupe to be soft in texture, full of flavor, and not waxy-tasting like most other dried cantaloupes I have tried. It is so good it is almost addicting! I now have co-workers stopping by my desk asking if they can have some of my cantaloupe. Keep up the good work!

I placed my order on Aug. 18th and I received it in just 4 days. WOW! the fruit was just perfect. I ordered from another company before and had to throw it out. I could not eat it.(saved a few dollars) Ha! Ha! This was my second order from J & D and I am hooked. Thanks for quick service and an excellent product.

I just placed my second order today. The corn nuts were yummy with just the right amount of salt. I also loved the cantalope. Best of all was the FAST delivery. Would recommend it highly.

I love this cantaloupe!!!!! Everytime I bite into a piece I am transported back in time to my honeymoon in Hawaii. I ate the most delicious cantaloupe all day long for two weeks while we were there. Every bite of your cantaloupe brings back such absolutely delicious memories. All that's missing is the beach!!!! Yummy!!!!!!!
