CONTEST: What the @#$% is that? (Hawaiian style)

I'm having a lovely time here in Hawaii, enjoying the sun, sand, and gorgeous tropical weather.

Not to rub it in for those of you knee-deep in the white stuff I vaguely remember as snow.

In the spirit of sharing a little aloha love, I've decided to hold a contest. It's been awhile since we played What the @#$% is that? and if you're new here and want to check out past games, you can go here or here or here.

Of course, readers tend to be less interested in the actual contest than in the winner selection process. You can see some of those here and here and here.

Here's the basic idea of What the @#$% is that?: I share photos of a mystery object and you take a guess what it might be. Guesses can be serious or silly, and you get one entry in the contest whether your answer is "right" or indicative of a need for serious mental health counseling.

The winner this time will receive a special gift pack of fabulous Hawaiian treats. That's a fancy way of making it sound exciting and mysterious instead of that I just haven't decided yet what the prize might be

So here we go...What the @#$% is that?
And here's a close-up so you can fully appreciate the texture and appearance.
So tell me....What the @#$% is that? Leave your guess in the comments between now and Saturday, March 12. I'll pick a winner before I leave Kauai, and will post the results early next week.

Aloha!
