What does CHOKO mean in Scrabble?
noun
AustralianNew Zealand
The pear-shaped, pale green fruit of a tropical American vine, eaten as a vegetable and known in many countries as chayote.
A choko is the fruit of a climbing vine originally from Central America, grown widely across warm regions and especially common in Australian and New Zealand backyards. Its mild, watery flesh takes on the flavour of whatever it is cooked with, so it is usually boiled, baked or pickled rather than eaten raw. Home gardeners often grow far more choko than they can use, giving the plant a reputation as an unstoppable climber.
