Root vegetable seen at the Farmers Market in Fremont.

Similar to Turnips, but white in color.

Looks like a swede or a rutabaga to me. Jicamas are more rounded. I remember seeing these in Europe and was told these were rutabagas.

They are probably Turnips.

Garg Ji,

I had found a link suggesting Jicama and looking exactly like my pictures.

May be Gurcharan Ji can have a look.
