Words: Bitter Melon Alert

We interrupt this blog with an important message from the National Bitter Melon Council.



Feeling tired and lackluster, worn out and bitter? Try new Bitter Melon! It's a cucurbit and so much more. Slice it, dice it, salt it and eat it in salads, sushi, omelets and risotto. Discerning diners love its texture and unique flavor. "Bitter Melon is the new arugula," says model/spokesperson Hiroko Kikuchi.

For more information and a free sample drop by The Western Front at 303 E 8th Ave. today between 1 and 5 p.m.and ask for Bitter Melon. Share your bitterness and win valuable prizes. Hurry down, supplies are limited.
