Creepiest Translation for a Halloween Candy

[DaveCook]

A dispassionate description of macapuno, or coconut sport, might observe that it's a naturally occurring variation in which the coconut water is supplanted by additional, softer meat. This version suits the holiday, however (see photo).

For the record, the candies (from Philippine Padala Center, 88-06 180th St., near Hillside Ave., Jamaica, Queens) have the color, the mouthfeel, and pretty much the flavor of little cocoa-powder logs, except much harder; on Halloween they're more likely to be used as projectiles than treats. So much for my 60 cents.
