A friend of mine mentioned this fruit, all he knew is that it was called a 'dinosaur egg'. He thinks it's a cross between a plum and something else, it is speckled and tastes like strawberries and apples. Anyone have any idea what the name of this fruit is ?

They are Pluots

A Modesto fruit breeder named Floyd Zaiger has revolutionized the plum industry with his family of patented Pluots--smooth-skinned crosses in which plum genes and character prevail. His Apriums (mostly apricot) and plumcots (half plum, half apricot) lag a decade behind, but also offer the promise of distinctive, delicious new fruits.
