Using a closeup of a cantaloupe skin, then inverting the colors, gets a very close approximation, but with a strong blue caste. Correcting that to near the color of the original, comes very close, but the pattern is a little bit different. Cantaloupe skins may vary a good amount, so my guess is that there is a better than 50/50 chance of it being a moderately manipulated melon mound.

EDIT: Curse you, BUTCH1.

I just brush off retarded answers like "something in the known universe" so don't hold your breath.

Well, I guess I'll go w/ Avocado skin???

(I guess Avocados are brownish, but if I'm wrong that'll explain why no green??)

I like the blood orange guess. I'll stick with the citrus theme and guess a clementine.
