Can you guess what these are? They look like grotesque space alien paws or some junk but they're wild yams that grow in the boonies here. They have white flesh and taste a lot like the regular white potatos that we have in the mainland. They have a rough exterior, with a very course layer of abrasive, hair-like fibers. Peeling them is a chore and it's best to wear gloves, because they'll tear up your skin. To my taste, they have a smoother, silkier texture than regular potatos. I'm quite fond of them!
