1084 - MELON

My naturaL rEsponse to encountering a slime mould is revulsion. Yet, according to the Wikipedia article (Slime mould), they are fascinating. My revulsion is partly to do with the smell, the feel and the blocking of my drain! Apparently some people in Ecuador eat them. I'd rather eat a melon!
