Last week I found this crazy looking "fruit" at school:
The package said "kino," and I said, "I have to try this!" Unfortunately, it pretty much just tasted like water. I cut it open, and it had LOTS of little seeds inside. It kind of looked like maracuja (passion fruit), but the seeds were lighter. Wikipedia says it tastes tart, so I must have tried one that wasn't very mature, or just plain bad. Here are some better pictures:
Wikipedia also says that it's a traditional food plant in parts of Africa. Interesting looking, and I found some really fascinating pictures of it online (makes a good subject) but not a fruit I'd recommend.
