Default Re: Praying Hands Taste Report

I bought a hand of praying hands from a local fruit stand. I think Rob's report is accurate. However, I wonder if the fruit I had was as developed as what Rob's pictures show. It seems like he got a little better experience than me.

I would say that this variety is not really great for eating fresh out of hand. To describe it simply, the eating experience is like a lack luster not sweet cross between Cavendish and Kandrian. I think that this variety is more about the novelty of fused fingers than about great produce.

If I happen to go by that stand, I might buy another hand just to trying cooking it just out of curiosity. (Perhaps I'll like it better that way) I once thought about growing this one, but after eating it, I think I'll pass.

Thanks for the report Rob. They are always a good reference.
