Wild tamarinds are much more spicy, though -- trap them if you can.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Okay, okay no one has to say "Just fucking Google it."
I did. So it's some pulp of a pod(?) mixed with sugar and -- garlic(?) and cayenne pepper(?).
It doesn't sound, from that description, like something yummy.

Perkins is currently on her way to Ohio with a replenished supply of tamarind balls.
WHERE DID SHE FIND THEM????
