I will have to get the name from rowen
I am kind of cheating with this first entry, I have had something similar to this last time I was in Tokyo.
I bought this at a store called LeoShop in the Narita Airport.
The sight test: It appears to be sushi, or sushi like, seaweed covering rice and fish.
The smell test: It smells like sea weed.
The touch test: It's seaweed covered, so it kind of feels like thin paper.
The listening test: It's not making any sound, unless of course I touch it. Then it crinkles.
The taste Test: The sea weed has a stong salty taste, inside is rice, shrimp, and sauce. The rice is rice, there isn't much to get into. The sauce however is a mixture of soy, and maybe something else. It almost tastes like fish sauce, but I'm not quite sure. The shrimp itself is pretty generic, like you'd find in frozen packs at local supermarkets. For airport convenience store sushi, (I will get the proper name from Row tomorrow) it was really good.
The juice I picked out because I had no idea what it was. There was a lot of things I recognized from the last time I was here, Pocari sweat, coke, ice coffee's. I looked through all the drinks and grabbed the first one I saw that I did not know what it was.
The sight test: At first glance it looks like iced tea, but as I said I grabbed it because I did not know what it was. The design appears to have what are either tea leaves, or some sort of wood shaving. It appears to be 100% something. I can assume juice or tea. The liquid itself is light brown, it looks like iced tea.
The smell test: It is not a sweet smell, and I'm going with my first instinct and saying it smells like tea. By which I mean like tea served in asian restaurants, not the honey glazed double creamed, half foam, no dice tea at starjones coffee. I really don't know anything about tea, so don't judge me based off that last sentence. Unless you're judging my tea knowledge, then well, I really can't defend myself.
The touch test: It's in a bottle, the bottle feels like plastic and wrapper. The liquid itself feels like sand. I lied, it actually just feels like tea.
The taste test: It's definately iced tea. It's not sweet, it's almost water like, with a huge tea kick at the end. I personally don't enjoy it. However, for the sake of this blog, and hydration. I will finish it.
