Here is an article on them, they are even smaller than what the look like in your photo.
On the last page of the article are 3 places that sell seed.
I want to try these too!

Dear Friends,
I know enough of you and your culinary wanderings, that I
thought I'd ask if you know of this little vine commonly called 'Cuke
Nuts' or 'Mouse Melon" (don't you love these common names?)
and
botanically as Melothria scabra. This is a Mexican cucurbit with
edible fruits.
Never saw or heard of it before seeing this web site:

Any experiences to share?
Best Jim W.
