Suckered by cool packaging

Saturday Hedi took a finishing techiques class at the Braid Box, a yarn shop in Saratoga, CA, so I went up with her to goof around. I had enough time to go to Mitsuwa Market, a Japanese supermarket in San Jose. It was heavenly walking down aisle after aisle of ethnic foods! I was quite parched by then, so I decided to get a beverage. In Japan, they have many, many different kinds of canned and bottled tea. I was just going to get some sort of green (well, it’s actually brown) tea, but then I saw this:
Okay, how cool is that bottle? It is a sleek aluminum bottle of Tea Soda! I should have been scared off by the “orange sugar” ingredient, but I wasn’t. As you can probably guess, the beverage itself was quite disgusting, but hey, the bottle is still neato.
