    Just FYI, if you look closely at the link Kev put up.....in the background you will see what they look like. There is one right in the middle that is "open". That's what I was trying to describe as having to eat it on the "shell".

    BTW, they don't sell them here anywhere. You would have to have someone bring them in from other countries during a visit or something. My sister is in PR right now and I called her to try and get you some, but they're not in season. Also, there are different ways to spell it depending on where you're from. In PR, its spelled Quenepa. Some other places is different (as mentioned above).

    Here are some more links:
