Ahhh, buddha hands - the farmers market's hipster-bait.

Maybe they last better in Asia but the two times I've had them brought to me ("look what I found!" "At the Santa Monica farmer's market?" "...yes..." "from the vendor with the beard and the dreads?" "...how did you -" "thanks. Give it here.") they smell vaguely like citron for a couple days then start smelling like rotting citron.

I think they're f'ing cool looking but the fact that you can't actually do anything with them annoys me.

Try candied frut again. It's worth it. Start with something edible.
