Butterfruit usually goes with yogurt for a milk shake, or with bread, cake, or with a fruit salad, or directly. These are good for all well-known butter nuts, but they're bad for meeting a tougher, not mature, butterfruit, which I used to eat directly, but I bought a couple of days ago that was strong enough to put in two or three days of a green stick in the house, thinking I'd have to eat in another way
