A very interesting read.  We had Osage Orange where I grew up and although I
was told not to eat the fruit I was told it was good to dry and then put in
drawers to keep bugs away.  Never did it but that was the local folklore.

Osage Orange looks nothing like black walnut! The implication here is that
Osage orange is to be avoided. May I suggest that the Osage orange is a
treasure not fully appreciated. My webspage on the subject:

Be careful.. Osage Orange 'fruit' looks a little like black walnuts.  Very
similar but I think the Osage Orange is a little larger than the black
walnuts.  There is another name for them too, just can't think of it at the
moment.   Lola
