Even though I've been eating all my life, I had a salad at a restaurant recently that had an ingredient I didn't recognize. Then I forgot to ask what it was before leaving.
This ingredient had the look and texture of apple or pear, but none of the flavor. Also the pieces were in long strips, too long to be the size of a strip of apple or pear.
It was moist and pithy (- not mealy pithy/ crunchy pithy), not really bad or good, just there. Maybe some ingredient that is in vogue as this was a "nice" restaurant.

Reason: clarification
Good thing DH didn't get it - he won't eat anything he doesn't recognize. Come to think of it, he won't eat a lot of what he DOES recognize!
