These sprouted from my neighbor's tree Identified ✔

What the heck is sprouting from this tree? The "fruit" is about 2 feet in length. Plano, TX if it matters.

The one time I had it, it was like an okra-y zucchini?

Oh, yeah. Then that’s a good comparison as okra is pretty good when young then has an entirely different fibrous/woody texture when old.
