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.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I do not believe the ones I ate had garlic or cayenne.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The Jamaican versions have no garlic and cayenne.
Just the pulp from the pod (which is very sour and sticky and is used in Asian cuisine) with sugar pressed into it.
It's dee-lightful.
I've had them with pepper (black or cayenne) and salt, and the savoury addition doesn't work for me at all.

Perkins is currently on her way to Ohio with a replenished supply of tamarind balls.

You know what's annoying in a diamond-shoes-too-tight kind of way? Getting an e-mail from your sister which says that she got the job she was interviewing for today, only you don't know where she was interviewing at in the first place.
I hate it when people leave out important information that I can't Google.
