Not the first ones I've eaten, but the first ones I've cooked. I finally decided to try them, and was pleasantly surprised that my secondary local supermarket carries them. Yay density! $2.49/lb discount, $2.99 list, vs. the $1 that Roche was offering at least earlier this summer. But I can walk to this one.

They're only sold in a net bag here; the counter guy offered to pick out open ones, which I refused out of impatience. Shouldn't have: quite a few were open, and I ended up paying for literal dead weight.

Carefully throwing out everything that was even a little bit open, I steamed a selection of the rest in like 1/3 cup of water and some scallions and garlic powder. Website suggested 5 minutes for a pound. I think my gas stove's high mode may be HIGH, because after 2-3 minutes they were almost all wide open and the water had mostly gone.

Decently tasty and nothing tasted rotten. Here's hoping!
