On the taste level - at the bottom of the scale - but a lovely looking fruit and it has dense vegetable matter like a potato so probably lots of nutrients. When harvested small they are tender and taste like mild peas. The ones in the pic are too big because I didn't discover them until late. Seems to be an easy-to-grow plant and if your garden doesn't produce much it's a plant for you as it produces a lot of fruit.
