EISPIRATEN

I haven't tried any of these yet. Should be ready any day now! They're only about 30% ripe-looking, so the ones that do look ripe are probably still a bit stiff and bitter. I'm hoping the bears can eat their fill this year. Last year's crop wasn't so good.

I'm in Washington this week (near Tacoma) and I ate some of these this morning - mix of sweet and not-so-sweet right now too.

Good to eat. Not so good to walk through
