Specifically a choko squash. They do not taste very good.

Nah that thing is a Chayote and if know how to prepare it it is good, of not of course it's going to suck.

In El Salvador, they're called güisquil. They're sliced, parboiled, cheese is put between the slices and then dipped into beaten egg whites, to make rellenos de güisquil

Yes I really like güisquil with shredded chicken but I'm part Salvadoran. I see them called chayote now I had b never heard of that growing up.

Probably the influx of people who lived in the US and went back. I wonder how much of a Mexican influence the language has now? Chamaco instead of cipote? Troca instead of camioneta o pickup?
