I saw these in an Asian market. I have no idea what they are .... perhaps a kind of cucumber?

Well..we also eat them..in India and other Asian countries. They're called ridge gourd...belong to the cucurbitaceae family. Nice picture...like the tight cropping.

Thanks to Madhai/Sagar for getting me the English name. I like them but my wife does not. So its been quite a while since I ate them. You should try them

Freaky colors, almost looks like they are glowing like a cigarette.

A warm season plant, Angled Loofah is a fast growing annual climbing vine, native to India. I used to eat them in Vietnam when I was little. By the way, is that red light glowing at them?
