The Kraken is real and apparently tastes good

[Red Shirt]

The Kraken is apparently a citrus fruit - who knew?  This fruit is called Buddha's hand and is native to India, if the page I found this on got it correct. Anyway, it adds to the theory the Kerbals are plants.

Buddha's hand? Looks more like the Predator's mouth. Think I'd have to pass on that one. 

(Or maybe the Alien face-suckers? Could go either way, I guess).

Kerbals would absolutely love that snack.

And at the Kerbacademy award of the creepiest fruit, we nominate...

Yup, Buddha's hand is the name... I've seen it on the food network show "Chopped"...

I wonder what it tastes like?

The page said sweet and lemony. Have to take their word for it.

Some of us have different ways of ingesting the beast.

Not recommended as a performance enhancer though.

It is a kind of lemon.  It's usually eaten candied.

Sure it is. Hold my drink and just watch this.

But yeah it is some of the good stuff... at least the good stuff that those various countries allow for export.

My ex father in law used to go back to St Kitts once a year and always brought me a bottle of the local white rum back. Nearest thing I've ever tried to a Gargle  Blaster.
