Unskinned?

I don't think the picture of the "skinned" squash actually shows a skinned fruit -- rather, it is the ivory-coloured variety also mentioned in the article. Also honestly, why would anyone want to skind a spaghetti squash, it would be almost impossible to cook after! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.119.5.209 (talk) 09:15, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Correct, the picture is not skinned, but an early ivory-colored squash before it ripened to yellow. -- RM 13:01, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps it originally read "ivory-skinned" or "white skinned". Drsruli (talk) 22:52, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

Origin North America and Central America

Many sources indicate a probable Asian origin for development of this group of squashes. Drsruli (talk) 22:56, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
