That's what it says in fine print on the upper left-hand corner of this package.
On the back, it warns, "Avoid keeping under direct sunray," which goes for hearts, too, I'd say. The mochi are wonderful, if you like your tea in a sweet, gummy, snot-green ball. (Guilty.)
Lesson learned: take photo of contents of package before you eat them.
Tip o' the keyboard to Jeff's post Pink Noodles.
Oh Japanese English, how I love you. *beams* My family bought some Vietnamese noodles once which included the instructions, "Let loose the noodle." This became a sort of battle cry in our household. Not sure what to do next? Let loose the noodle!
ReplyDeleteMy husband eats those all the time. He describes the consistency as like a dead mouse (sorry), but he loves 'em. My daughter follows sites that post wonderful Engrish. One of my favorites: Beware of People.
ReplyDeleteLanguage can be so much fun:
ReplyDelete"Let loose the dead mouse!"
(It would have to be a dead mouse without the bones though, as there's nothing crunchy going on.)
On a tiny box of Japanese mints, "Makes your life more pleasant." I think that's a good reason for a lot of things.
ReplyDeleteI love soft, gummy, chewy mochi, too!
haha
ReplyDeleteI just bought a package on whim yesterday.
The little 'KEEPIT' package inside says: "Do not microwaves"
NOTE: The "Don't eat" warning is barely visible. So my warning is DON'T EAT the 'KEEPIT' pack!
