  1. Flavors can always be so subjective. You always provide the best descriptors! Love it!!!

  2. PART 2! How was it cooked?
    Like a pie, or roasted like an Acorn Squash, or made into a soup (similar to a pumpkin or squash soup), or even a dessert….

  3. I'm from Cajun country(Louisiana) I have never heard of this! Now I need to try one.

  4. I wonder what it would taste like if she made a soup out of the leftovers? Like a butternut squash soup

  5. With that color, it must have some nutrients. I wonder if it gets sweeter when cooked? It would make a nice addition to soups and stews.

  6. Would be interesting to know if you were to back this fruit or make a salsa or grill it if that would improve the flavor or not.

  7. Emmy have you tried monster fruit? Its from the common house plant Monstera deliciosa, aka the Swiss cheese plant! The fruit sort of looks like a cob of corn. It's flesh looks like little tiles that fall away as it ripens. Please check it out!
