As someone who grew up eating (and hating) lots of what we kids referred to as “squish,” I can tell you the fruit of a cross pollinated zucchini/pumpkin looks sad and misshapen.

This in no way stops your mother from insisting you eat it.

It still tastes like squish. It took many years before I could appreciate squash of any kind. Still struggling with winter squash.
My mother tried to make me eat stuff. She failed.

I was always warned to never let them cross because the hybrid fruits can be poisonous (especially if they taste bad)? It's even in the newspaper every now and then. o_O
