My impulsive nature set in and I immediately reached out and grabbed it. Owie!!!! Apparently I did not think that the giant sharp pointy things would actually be so sharp and pointy. It was of oblong football nature. The outside color was somewhat of a translucent yellow, with a pinkish color piercing through. It was also, as previously discussed, covered in sharp pointy things. I had to have it, but I also needed to know what this strange thing was called. I looked at the signs and saw Strawberry Mango. If a Strawberry was mixed a mango, I could imagine nothing but deliciousness.
I came home and immediately ran to my roommates room to show her my great find. "What is that," she asked? With glee I shouted out, "It's a Strawberry Mango!" My roommates gf looked at me like she did not quite believe that's what the fruit actually was. I handed the fruit over in confidence, but apparently, my imagination had run away with me again. She looked down and looked at me and said, "The sticker says horned melon." How could that be? And more importantly where in the hell did I get strawberry mango from? Apparently smart people know you can't mix a strawberry with a mango.
Needless to say, I then lost interest in the fruit. Left it on the corner for 3 days. It got bad and I just threw it out without even tasting it. $5.99 and crushed dreams later, I decided to take a picture of the fruit before I threw it out.
Please keep in mind the piece of fruit was getting bad, so this photo does not show all the glory of the fruit that was a strawberry mango for 10 minutes of my life. It also does not really justify the sharpness and pointedness of this slightly demonic fruit:
