The answers are as follows:
1) Custard apple (I’d never heard of it either but Girl Roomie knew what it was)
2) Rhubarb
3) Peanut
4) Papaya
5) Olive
6) Chestnut
7) Pumpkin
8) Corn
9) Star fruit
10) Tomato
There was HUGE controversy over the answer to number 4, as most teams (including ours) put down ‘pawpaw’. People were yelling at the poor woman who runs the trivia night. In Australia, we tend to use the terms ‘paw paw’ and ‘papaya’ interchangeably. But apparently ‘paw paw’ is a yellow flesh and ‘papaya’ is an orangey colour. And then people were arguing that the picture looked yellow.

Controversy!
I definitely never knew that pawpaw and papaya were two slightly different things. Now I do!
Agree with Danielle-- I have never even HEARD of a pawpaw. My mind has been blown.
