Fiji ginger
One of the stranger things that I purchased at the co-op in Ithaca was Fiji Ginger. Imagine if you will: pieces of ginger covered in chocolate. Each piece is the size of a Raisinette and even the most hearty of ginger lovers (as opposed Mary Anne lovers?) could only eat a few. I’m telling you: these things are strong.
If you’re interested in trying a bizarre snack foods and can stomach a little ginger, give these a shot. They’re… interesting.
Is the ginger inside crystallized? dried? fresh? I am a huge fan of ginger, but I can’t quite picture it covered in chocolate.
Oh… and Happy New Year, Ryan!
Ginger is so good for digestion too…I can imagine it with chocolate! Sounds goooood.
Jen — it was candied ginger (ginger with cane sugar).
I still can’t imagine it, but I’d certainly give it a try if I ran across it!
