The Pepino Melon: A Gross Fruit, an Acceptable Vegetable

This is a pepino melon:

The yuan it is next to is the same size as a quarter (which is the same size as a 2-pence, for my British friends). 

I bought it from the fruit section of the grocery store. It tasted like a green bean, and had the texture of an old tomato. So... as a fruit it was unpleasant, but I could see it being a decent salad vegetable. Not, however, something I would go out of my way to purchase again.
