[quote=Anonymous]No. Not the same thing. The parallel I can draw is the difference between zucchini and cucumber. Snake gourd will taste more akin to "Torai" (Hindi word), used for curries - [img]http://simplefoodbowl.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/snake_gourd_plant.JPG[/img] Asian cucumbers are more like "Kakdi" (Hindi word) - you can eat it without peeling the skin because skin is usually thin. Sweeter than regular cucumber and a little dryer. Used for salads - [img]http://www.burpee.com/images/product/prod000682/prod000682_lg.jpg[/img][/quote]
