Hello!! I have two fairly easy words for you. The first is ugli fruit pronounced (UHG-lee) the native Jamaican ugli fruit is believe to be a tangerine-grapefruit hybrid. The other one is xanthan gum pronounced (ZAN-thuhn) which is produced from the fermentation of corn sugar. Hope this helps. :o) I found these on the foodnetwork website under the encyclopedia area.

Ugly fruit is an actual fruit. That is the only one I know of. I have seen it in the produce sections of Hy-Vee and WalMart.
