Melona

Gwammy just raves about this!

Have you tried the latest Korean craze that's hitting the Philippines?  It's called Melona "creamsicle" (that's ice cream shaped like a popsicle) and it's quite inexpensive (retailing at around P25 - P35 each).  These ice cream bars come in 4 basic fruit flavors--melon, banana, mango and strawberry.  If you will note, the melon flavor is actually the honeydew variety (green in color), and not the Spanish cantaloupe (which is orange in color).  The creamsicle is manufactured by the Binggrae group, a company that distributes Korean ice cream all over the world.  Go to your nearest Korean store (you can find them all around Metro Manila) and pick up a bar!  I'm not too sure if the company has started to distribute outside Metro Manila, but if the sales trend will continue, I'm sure that the Korean-Filipino importers will consider spreading to other major cities in the archipelago.
