Ummm… "YouTube Monday"

Mugwump has her Mouthy Mondays.

Photographers have their Wordless Wednesdays.

Heck, even bars have Thirsty Thursdays.

I’d like to dedicate one day a week on this blog to cool stuff I find on the internet. I’m the queen of running across weird things on the internet. I wish this was a marketable skill, but alas, it is not so.

Keep in mind I am not planning on writing any less. Hopefully, I’ll just be updating more often.

Anyways, I’m having trouble coming up with a cool, alliterative title. Anyone? Anyone?

So, without further adieu… uh… “YouTube Video Monday!”

Weird Food

I went grocery shopping at the Asian grocery store with my Thai stepmom the other day.

The store was really cool, and filled with some really strange items. I did my best to take photos, but I felt kind of weird walking around the store taking picture of the food instead of buying it. I tried to make it look like I was taking pictures of the DragonMonkey, but I’m sure I wasn’t nearly as covert as I hoped to be. Besides, at at 5’9″ I was by FAR the biggest person in the store, so it was a little hard to hide.

Anyways, without further ado, I give you:

STRANGE FOOD

Look! Yoshi food!

We have more soy sauce than you do. I know this because Tyler knows this.

You silly little westerners with your Chicken Noodle soup. Pah. Live a little.

“Honey? What’s for dinner?”

I have no idea what this is, but I’m pretty sure it’s about to eat the Squidgelet.

Lotus Root. Hah. And you thought those tiny little cars were engineered.




I couldn’t seem to take a decent photo of the Jack Fruit. This was the world’s ugliest fruit. It’s the size of a watermelon and covered completely in angry little nodules.




For when your regular-colored Daikon simply won’t do:

Ummmmmm:

Yeah, nevermind. I don’t want to know. At least it’s on sale.
