Couple of Lee Kum Kee sauce flavors. A nice trout. Some
baby bok choi. Beer. A can of crab in spicy frying sauce. A burro banana: http://i7.tinypic.com/20u8gon.jpg http://i7.tinypic.com/20u8hmv.jpg About the length of a medium banana, but twice as thick, easily. Like a short, yellow plantain. Tastes like an unsweetened banana. Even moreso than a plantain does. In my experience (and I keep trying 'em), the only variation on the banana formula that is truly sweet is the banana itself. Honestly, the stuff I didn't get was more interesting: Moth Flour. Really said it was made from something recognizable on the label, but I forgot to write it down. Frankincense (non-edible). Little pink crystals. Water Giant Bug Essence. No indication of what this really was. Grape Sugar: The nutritional label said: Sugars: 0g. Funny me. I thought dextrose was a sugar. Puffed rice: this was interesting because it was packaged in a heat-sealed plastic bag that was trademarked to the store itself, with that address. No ingredients list or nutritional info. I'm thinking they bought a huge bag and repackaged it themselves. Or bought it unlabeled and realized it too late. Just puffed rice. Four other brands right next to it. But does it suggest they're going to start self-branding more? --Blair |

This reminds me of the first home visit that I did for Habitat......I came home and showered for about 30 minutes. Looking at those and thinking about that visit still makes me cringe! helen |
