So I'm not dead, just tired and busy.
Today's a quick one today. So quick there's no need for a jump.
Went to the Japanese supermarket today and found mints in plastic packages that featured Andy Warhol prints on the tins.
Since I am a blindbag/blindbox lover I decided to get one of each flavor and see what this fuss was about.
The flavors are mint, cola and grape.
They are described more as lozenges which makes much more sense once you actually try them.
There's 30 different tins to collect. And for all you classic Warhol lovers out there, no Campbell's soup! They do have other classics such as banana and dollar sign though.
As for taste, they are a bit odd. The mint is very strong with a bit of an herbal note and I think this may be my favorite one of the bunch. The cola and grape flavors have a tartness to them. The cola tastes herbal.... really threw me off guard and I wasn't fond of it. The grape had a minty flavor to it that I didn't find as offensive but still threw me off guard.
Also, they seem to be filled only half way with some plastic taking up the other half. This isn't the case though, the plastic piece probably takes up a sixth of the container so don't feel like you've been too ripped off.
All in all I don't think I'll be getting anymore of these unless they go on sale. But I will admit I might be tempted to grab another mint flavor once I finish all of these, if I can stomach finishing the cola flavor.
Have a great weekend everyone and live happy!
