Chayote (Sechium edule) also known as mirliton squash is an edible plant belonging to the gourd family Cucurbitaceae. Chayote was one of the several foods introduced to the Old World during the Columbian Exchange. Also during this period, the plant spread from Mexico to other parts of the Americas, ultimately causing it to be integrated into the cuisine of many other Latin American nations. #microphotography #captured18 #veggietable #veggieworld #fruit #naturephotography #topmicro #mobilephotography (at Darjeeling) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq60a8VFdpk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=otm8hjdr519l
