What Melon Ballers Are Good For

[forestofglory]

I own a melon baller, and use in fairly regularly. This is not because I eat my melons in prefect little spheres, but rather because I learned for my mother that melon ballers are one the easiest ways to core and apple. For those who are unfamiliar with melon ballers, these devices consist of and stick with two sharp edged metal half-spheres at either end. To core and apple with one, you cut the apple in half and then use the melon baller to scoop out the core. It is considerably easier to do it this way then to just use a knife.
