I’m looking for a vegetable that my family grew in S. Fla. years ago and need help, finding it. We called it a “jahote”. It grew on a climbing vine and was about the size of an apple.
Light green in color and had ridges.
Any help would be appreciated.

You talking about this?

If so, it is called a Mirliton in Louisiana or a Chayote Squash.
