What's In Our Pantry?

Thankfully, our apartment has a kitchen. We've stocked our pantry with all sorts of local delicacies. Here's a sampling of what we've got:

If these aren't seriously delicious, I'm returning them on the grounds of false advertising.



Sometimes everybody needs a little fiber. These taste very similar to the whole grain pasta sold in the States.



Hey! I recognize that guy!


Just like home.



These are moon cakes... Everyone eats these during the Moon Festival. They're.... uhh... interesting. I was in a grocery store recently and the clerk offered me a moon cake sample. She said, "it's beef" so I take a big bite. "...and pork!" Uhhh, thanks.


The name says it all.


Seaweed crackers with chocolate in the middle. Sounds yuki to me.


What is Job's tear, you may be asking yourself. I'm asking myself this question too.

Oh, by the way, while eating these don't forget to make a "healthy beautifully wish".


Seaweed crackers with cheese filling. Not a pleasant combination. Personally, I think the nana club sounds like a gang of third graders who make fun of their classmates.


These packets turn your plain oatmeal into those flavored oatmeal packs. (You know, apple cinnamon, maple brown sugar...) Pretty tasty. Hey, it's got that Quaker guy on it, you can't go wrong!

***NEWSFLASH***
Heather has just informed me that they have other flavors -> vegetable, mushroom, seaweed and some other assorted flavors we cannot decipher. Vegetable oatmeal? Maybe you can go wrong.
***END NEWSFLASH***


Usually I prefer my apple soda with chemical ingredients, but I figured hey, what the heck? I'll try it!


I've been staring at the asparagus juice every time we go to the grocery store. I had to try it! I'm waiting for a special occasion... I'm just not sure what occasion is actually special enough. Please reply with your suggestions.

I think you should down that baby right before you break in Jeremy's bathroom at his new apartment. :)

asparagus juice was one of the only things in taiwan that i really had a hard time consuming. one sip is about all i could take. but maybe i had a bad batch.

but as the above poster suggested, it may come in handy for practical jokes. :)

Phil did in fact drink it, which will probably become a blog in the future. I could not, even though I am pretty adventurous!
