Meiloorun fruit

The meiloorun fruit, also known as meiloorun melon or simply meiloorun was a type of orange fruit. It was known to not grow on Lothal, making it quite rare on the planet. The fruit is known to be the favorite snack of rebel pilot Hera Syndulla.

A large quantity of these fruits were once in the possession of an Imperial unit on Lothal before they were lost due to the actions of two of the Spectres, Ezra Bridger and Garazeb Orrelios.

During an Attack on Imperial Troop Transports and after the Siege of Lothal, Zeb used the alias Commander Meiloorun for various purposes. The name Commander Meiloorun was again used by Zeb as a disguise to help his team escape from inquisitors.

While meilooruns naturally had orange and yellow rind, there existed a hybrid variant that had a purple rind instead.^[1]

Behind the scenesEdit

Meilooruns originate from X-Wing: Wedge's Gamble, a Star Wars Legends novel written by Michael A. Stackpole and released in 1996. "Meiloonrun Juice" is sold at Star Wars Galaxy's Edge in Disneyland.
