Etymology

The word 'casaba' comes from the Spanish 'casaba', which refers to a specific variety of melon. Its origins can be traced back to the 19th century, when melons were cultivated in various regions, particularly in the Mediterranean and the Americas. The casaba melon is believed to have been developed in the Middle East and was later brought to the Americas during the trade of fruits and vegetables. The name may also derive from the term 'kush,' relating to the ancient regions of East Africa, where melons were historically cultivated. Over time, the casaba melon became popular in the United States and is now considered a staple fruit in grocery stores during the summer months.
