Stinkin toa bukut: a large tree that gets its name from the bad odour given off by its hard black pod-like fruit which looks like fat toes and can grow up to three feet in length. But the pulp in the pod has a nice sweet taste, and the leaves and pods are used in herbal medicines to treat skin disease and diabetes. It is also used as a tonic and as an aphrodisiac. Cassia grandis.
