Summary: define good. ;)

it was great for photo ops and maybe not so good for fresh, but you know those little buggies drop right out when you dry them, and the flavor in these older brutes is incomparable.
one of the affectionate nicknames for the giant western edulis is “barstools”; I think that you can see why!
