*Note* This Taiwan White Bitter Melon according to my research isn’t sunburnt, it turns completely orange once its fully ripe but it’s normally eaten while still in the white, underripe stage.

Considering that Bitter Melon is harvested unripe, I don’t think it’s safe to call a ripening Bitter Melon “overripe,” “too ripe” sounds just about right. Once the Bitter Melons begin to turn orange, the seeds of the fruit have reached peak maturity.
