Are you sure it's an edible fruit? Never seen anything like it. Can you show inside of the fruit?

It's durian. Either photoshopped or real one heavily mutated.  Another possibility it was kept in a mold, like Japanese make square watermelons.

Not much room for seeds and put me in the sceptics camp until pics of multiple fruit and internal fruit shots come to light. Photoshopping keep getting better and you can never be sure.

Doesn't look like photoshopped. The stem end does look like durian. Could it be an aborted durian fruit? Usually aborts will be much rounder, but could be a mutant abort?
