Adventures in product testing

---

Grocery shopping here is always an adventure. Finding items that have some sort of english on them is not always possible and I felt very limited by it. So I decided to randomly try things that looked interesting. There is a plethora of yoghurt flavors to choose from and sometimes it's kind of hard to tell what they are, even with pictures. The first mystery yoghurt I tried was by Classy Kiss and was simply called 'Taste Yoghurt'. I bought it mainly for the awesome story on the container: "When the first light of morning come up in the sky, Under the Alps Mountain, A milk-float driven by the mastiffs set out, Pass through the forest and grassland, fully loaded with mellow yoghurt, Bring the fresh breath of the alpine meadow to every royal mansion, Then the aristocrats began their happy and elegant day with the thick milk flavor..."

I figured, if those poor dogs went through all that to deliver the stuff, I should probably try it. Hooray! It was good! It was kind of between a sweet vanilla yoghurt and the tart plain yoghurt. Mastiffs, you've done your job well. I enjoyed the thick milk flavor. 😊 I also have sitting in my fridge one container of corn yoghurt and one container of tomato yoghurt. I had the courage to buy them but I haven't had the stomach to try them yet. I purchased some sort of hot cereal too. I don't think I'm making it right because it turns into a weird curdled custard everytime I try. I should ask my contact teacher what I'm doing wrong.

I did develop my first Chinese cold. I went to the school clinic today and she gave me antibiotics and some Chinese herbal thing. Wish me luck!

Classy Kiss
Mmmm....slobbery dogs drag yoghurt down from a mountain. What a perfect advertising hook.

Corn Vs. Tomato
Which will win? More to follow....

Cereal?
I think it's hot cereal. It was by the oatmeal.

My first Chinese Drugs
I am familiar with the cefalexin. I have no idea what the other stuff is. The nurse assured me it would help with my cold. Fingers crossed!

no that is not cereal
That is a type of Chinese dessert. In English will be "double skill milk" it's like something like cream brulee but it's with milk and we don't bake it we steam it. lol
