Is it a person in a vegetative state? And yes, I do recall that it can
be eaten. LOL

(This one is a freebie. A person in a vegetative state would be an "animal"
for Q1, not "vegetable".)

I'm feeling very lost on this one, which I attribute to my own personal
turmoil, and not the boundaries of the game. So, I made some lists of what
we know.
Affirmative:
- Per Papa's comment, it is "something completely different"
- It IS a vegetable only in the general sense of the game
- It IS a food for human consumption
- The shape IS more yonic than phallic
- It COULD be confused by some to be a fruit
- A person using it as a drug COULD overdose on it
Negative:
- It is NOT used for sauces
- It is NOT a squash
- It is NOT generally sold as a single piece
- It is NOT a vegetable
- It is NOT a fruit
- It is NOT a melon
- It is NOT coffee
- It is NOT a mushroom
- It is NOT a person in a vegetative state
- One does NOT normally eat the entire thing, skin and all
- The skin is NOT striped or banded
Unanswerable
- Yes/No is not a sufficient answer for "is it green"
We have two more questions left (since walkman's question was deemed a
freebie).

Going over tfurrows summary, I realized a couple of things:
1. We skipped question #12.
2. The answer to question #5, "Is it generally sold as a single piece?" should
be "I can't answer" rather than the "No" I gave.
I apologize for the confusion. Let's set the question count back by 1 for the
miscount and 2 more for the bad answer, which makes the last question ...
Q16: Is it an herb?

Q17: Is it commonly sold in western grocery stores?

(I am interpreting "western" as "American" since I don't have much experience
with grocery stores other than in the US and Japan.)
A17: Yes
