What little pulp is in the fruit (it's mostly seed) tasted a little sour with almost no sweetness and left a distinctive but not alarming slight burning/scratching feeling in the back of my throat for a short time afterwards. A really neat plant, but I'd hardly consider the fruit even in the ranks of famine food. Perhaps if the pulp was fermented away from the seeds and cooked a little it could pass as palatable if that's all you had.
