I'm actually allergic to honeydew, only one slice has made a tongue get really tingly and swell up noticeably--for me, anyway--and though I really don't like cantaloupe either, I have to go with the safer option of the two choices.

I will not eat either one, but I have a personal beef with cantaloupe for being the worst Jelly Belly flavor in the Costco jar next to strawberry cheesecake, so, since I eat Jelly Bellies far more often than I do melons, I shall vote for honeydew for not infiltrating my candy supply.

Honeydew all the way.. canteloupe is boring and has a disappointing flavor but honeydew is sweet and delicious.

Honeydew ~ 3
Cantaloupe ~ 2

Honeydew wins. Next battle:

Chow Mein


vs.

Ramen

This is a surprisingly tough choice, as they are both very delicious. If I could vote for both of them, I would, but that would completely defeat the purpose of the thread, so I will restrict my vote to one as much as it pains me to do so.

And that vote shall be for ramen, for its complex flavor as well as its ability to have anything in it and still be delicious. Also, the above picture of ramen does the food more justice than its chow-mein counterpart does for itself. Must be the close-up.

Hard to decide, really hard...
i love both of them, both are delicious... but ill go for ramen, because she is totaly adaptable.

I grew up eating a whole lot of Top Ramen. It isn't anything like "normal" ramen, but it was a food staple in my life for at least half a decade and I've always loved it even if now I don't eat it at all more than once or twice a year.

I've seen some people eat Top Ramen without the liquid. Seriously? That's like eating a hamburger without the patty.

I must go with chow mein. Chinese food has always been one of my favorites, and I always order chow mein in a Chinese restaurant. My kids love it too. The younger one laughs each time the older one slurps up a noodle. How can you vote against a child's laughter?

Chow mein mmmmm that is good. Gotta get that when I always go to Chinese.

So chow mein is my vote.

Chow mein is okay... I don't usually eat it unless I get Panda Express but even then I don't usually eat it. Ramen on the other hand ^^ I'll make some when I have nothing to eat and it works anytime.

Ramen gets my vote.

Chow mein is so good with potstickers, which are one of my favorite foods. I cant say no to that. chow mein is my vote.

Ramen ~ 4
Chow Mein ~ 3

Ramen wins. New battle:

Burrito


vs.

Taco

Taco. No contest. That crunchy bite into a taco is just so amazing. Plus you can have soft tacos. Can you have a hard shell burrito? Didn't think so.(Actually I don't know if they do but meh.)

I can't imagine life without burritos. Not only does they combine meat, vegetables, and delicious carbohydrates in a way no other food can, but they always come at a reasonable price relative to their size. I've seen 12-dollar burgers before, but never a 12-dollar burrito.

The taco was made specifically for people who can't finish burritos. You know what I am when I eat a taco? Still hungry. A taco isn't a meal, why bother?

Can you have a hard shell burrito?

Oh gosh, the battle of one of my favorite Mexican cuisines. Wow, hard to decide. I'll have to go with Tacos though. There's just something about eating a hard shell that carries an assortment of meats and veggies that will break apart when you try to eat it and make your mother convinced that you need to go back to eating with a baby's bib.

So Tacos.
