Today at the techinal bean-counting consortium we celebrated a milestone of some profundity for a colleague. This fête of sorts included cupcakes. Which the DoL, as a whole, really enjoys.
Post-cupcake, it was decided that perhaps a brisk walk followed by a healthy lunch would be in order, so I skipped on over to my local japo-express foodspot and got myself maki and some of those glass noodle things. Most importantly I also procured for myself one can of Ito En Japanese Green Tea:
I knew it wasn’t going to fuzzy, but it wasn’t sweet at all! It was just a can of cold green tea. This was not what was expected. I was really taken aback. My tongue did a weird bendy, un-happy thing.
Because I like to tell people things, I conveyed my befuddlement at Ito En’s non-sucrosity to Jeffxa, Roaming Reporter, who then, in some sort of attempt to prove that my consternation was ill-placed, listed two non-sweet canned goods. I rebut:
1) chipotles in adobe sauce? not a drink. find it for me in drink form and we’ll talk again.
2) clamato? obviously would not be sweeted as it is NEVER sweet to drink veggies.
TEA on the other hand? many times—oft even—it is sweet.
Anyway, I’m over it now.
*look away*
