What Is The English Name Of This Edible Stuff??? (picture) by Emmyk(op): 5:08pm On Jun 03, 2013
I have grown to know this edible melon thingy among Yagba People (Yorubas in Kogi State). After preparation, you break the cover into two (like groundnut) and eat the stuff inside.

I was "taking it down" tis' afternoon and it dawn on me that I dont even know the English name ever since I was eating it (since childhood)..

Does it mean it's cant be found outside Nigeria?

We call it Itoo (pronunced like : He-tow ), in Yagba.

And Ilorin people call it Itowo. .
