Yeah, well. Three good ones, and we tried one - while it had some
ripe-looking seeds, I am sure that it wasn't even remotely ripe.

The fruit are pear-shaped with creamy, white color skin that is
striped in faint green.

Check.

The flesh is light colored, fine grained, very dry and resembles
sweet potatoes in flavor.

No way, Jose. It had the texture and flavour of unripe Little Gem.
Moist, not nutty, and low in both starch and sugar.

Clearly we don't get enough sun here :-(

However, it tasted of SOMETHING, unlike marrows.
