It's like a honeydew but it's yellowish orange on the inside. Some people eat part of one for breakfast.

It is really not due to the cam profile, but the uneven firing (1,3,4,2) of 4 cycle 4 cylinder engines. Due to that, the power strokes do not over lap, each piston must complete it's own power stroke and come to a complete stop before the next piston can start it's power stroke. This creates pulsations in the power delivery, most obvious at low RPM's. I think this along with a more open exhaust (less back pressure), is creating the "cam lope" you are describing.
