Just a difference in opinion I guess. I am a great lover of wild foods.
Well, the spotter says it is good for pickles...but personally I think we ought to leave some stuff for the wildlife to eat! :)
I think Raksha's suggestion seems closer than wild cucumber. Wild cucumbers (at least what they call wild cucumbers in New England) are prickly
Looks very similar to ivy gourd
Is this edible for human food?
