It's a Mexican Squash Chayote. My wife used it to make Tacos, mixed in with the ground beef, it's delicious.

Chayote is used through out all of Latin America thought it may be called different names in some places. It is eaten raw on salads or cooked. They always have it in supermarkets here in Florida too. It is a fruit but there might be a few people who think of it as a veggie.

Never seen them in Europe.

According to Wikipedia it's indeed a vegetable and related to pumpkins.
