(Huff at the older fruit images being broken for comparison! Oh, right, there's the recap link I forgot about (http://www.teamouse.net/fruit.php), there we go, now anyone else reading will remember it too.)

I feel like this is one of those fruits where one should imagine the spikes as eyes, and the seed sacs as a different kind of eyes, and go from there.

I actually had a dream about eating a bitter wedge of a cucumber-like mystery fruit the other day. We were in some sort of survival situation trading rations, and someone I may have been trading with found there was accidentally something he was horribly allergic to (which had never been mentioned before) in his batch of some-kind-of-gourd while I was eating the bitterpicklething, so he got very agitated and went to retrieve something with which to shoot me in revenge before he inevitably succumbed. It wasn't a very good time. The fruit itself attacking you instead at least seems fairer, really.
