A housemate returned from Japan the other day, after a 3 month stint there, bringing something that’s soft on the outside, moist on the inside and yellow in colour back with him. Have a guess what it is...
Tadah! Tokyo Banana. Read the instructions, read the ingredients...
The packaging is damn nice I tell you, one can practically present it to another person with no wrappings required. Each of the bananas inside (somehow, sounded really wrong) is wrapped individually, layered by plastic holders. Makes me think that packaging is an industry itself in Japan. Okay, back to its content, Tokyo Banana is basically a dessert, like Japanese sweets, the outer layer is made of flour, soft in texture and it kinda melts in your mouth, like M&Ms. The filling consists of a chunk of moist, thick banana. If you love eating bananas (the fruit, that is), this is heaven-like. By the way, please don't ask me why its named Tokyo Banana (definitely not because the banana's are from a plantation in Tokyo) because I have no idea as well.
Yellow packaging, yellow content, its really yerrow! Perhaps I should blog this in yellow as well.
Does it remind you of anything? Twiggies, perhaps (Hello? What were you thinking?)
Banana... Banana... Banana...
The thing about blogging what you eat, especially when its something really good, is that, you're always being left out, unless you're dining with fellow bloggers (because we will let our cameras "eat" first). And with a bunch of guys having a go at these, you can't help but overhearing jokes related to bananas. Give me more of these stuff!!! *wonder if they sell it locally*
