Mysterious Fruit

This past week, the biggest conference of the summer stayed on Wheaton's campus - KOSTA, which stands for Korean Students Abroad and Korean Students in America. All of us CSA's had been warned about this conference even back during job interviews. We were told, basically, to approach the week with fear, trepidation, and flexibility. It is a bit of a crazy week - over 2100 Koreans come to the campus, filling all the dorms, and meeting in many of the buildings. All the sessions are in Korean; some of the guests don't speak any English which can make some interactions with them challenging. But despite that, and despite the long hours and late nights and the practically incessant requests for laundry room keys, KOSTA was one of my favorite conferences so far. The guests were so polite and unfailingly patient with me, and the kids were adorable.

My roommate Arwen found this interesting looking fruit in the Fischer dorm kitchen after KOSTA left and brought it home. It tastes a bit like canteloupe or some other kind of melon, but it's crunchier. Anyone know what it is?
