one of my hobbies is "trying new foods"

like, i come across as someone who spends a lot of money on their clothes when

no all my clothes are thrifted, i spend most of my extra coin trying new restaurants
to substitute... this gaping hole... in my life... i& #39;ve been trying new ice cream bars from hmart and i have Opinions
i got a box of the brown sugar boba ice cream bar that& #39;s all the Rage ... and it was delightful, how the boba retained its texture in spite the fact that it was frozen like a ROCK when i bit into it

:^O after eating one, i was Compelled to eat another

a Grave Mistake
my critique of the brown sugar ice cream bar is therefore in its size as compared to its Decadence of Flavor; eating one isn& #39;t enough, but eating two is 3/4& #39;s too much brown sugar boba ice cream bar
the following week, i tried the melona ice cream bar for the first time-- following my disappointment with the TYPICALLY PERFECT, BABY& #39;S FAVORITE plum wine mikawaya mochi ice cream

rather than RISK the possibility of CRUMBLY, FREEZER-SHOCKED MOCHI i thought:
no mochi this time!
and omg i Understand why it& #39;s so Iconic like. it& #39;s so fragrant, refreshing, perfectly proportioned... the bar is close to the stick so it doesn& #39;t shatter into your hands as you bite into it...

i promptly moved the Baby& #39;s Favorite title from plum wine mochi to melona melon bar
THIS WEEK i& #39;m trying the shari shari pear ice bar-- as it was low on calories and on Sale... according to danny& #39;s translation of the packaging it came from jpn was imported to korea and then imported to america, making it an international, jet-setting experience
the taste was on point, asian pear is a good flavor-- however, it was simple and lacking in any nuance. salt or a warmer spice (like ginger) would have elevated it. the effect was like biting into a frozen asian pear but without the texture.
due to its water content it shatters the closer you get to finishing it. REFRESHING as it was, the value (7$ for a pack of 6) did not align to my expectations

to be... continued... my next trip to the supermarket...
I’ve since tried several different ice creams. Thus, I shall update this thread,,,
After a particularly bad batch of plum wine mochi I was turned off by the concept of purchasing another bag. However Costco bubbies were far too cheap to pass off,,,
