Kit Kats Gone Wrong
December 26th, 2006 by MarkWho could come up with something as whack as red bean flavored Kit Kats? Apparently, not the Taiwanese. No, no… the convenience stores have to import this stuff for us. Thank goodness for Japan.

You’d better pick up more while you can, it appears as though they’re available for only a limited time only!
I hear that Kit Kat has specific flavors for every market, so no two countries Kit Kats are alike. However it’s been many a years since I’ve had an American Kit Kat, so I can’t really offer any first-hand experience.

no, I refuse to believe those were good. Nothing red bean flavor is ‘good’. Except for Lousiana style red beans and rice.

I had a tasty red bean mooncake once upon a time. Unexpected, but it isn’t impossible for them to be edible.

I guess I’m pretty easy to please. I love Louisiana style red beans and rice, but I still like quite a few things with Chinese style red beans, too. The only time I worry is when I see red beans in something where it should be chocolate. The McDonald’s ice cream sundae with red bean sauce instead of chocolate syrup, that I ate in the same week I got to Taiwan, was a particularly disgusting offender.

紅豆很好吃阿！紅豆湯好喝，紅豆餅美味，我超愛吃紅豆甜品的。反而是西方把紅豆煮成鹹的當主食讓我很不適應！我猜這就是東西方差異吧！
但是麥當勞的聖代上面是紅豆醬？？？聽起來是有點噁啦！紅豆應該只能放在剉冰上面！配冰淇淋？？？WOW～～麥當勞果然有創意！

The only place I love red beans is a chili. Mooncakes are not for me.
As for chocolates, I stick to kinder, cadbury’s and ferrero rocher when I do have some.

顰兒: Yea McDonald’s seems to work really hard to prepare foods and even ad campaigns for the specific markets they serve. A few days ago I saw a special on TV here in Japan about the top guy for Japan McDonald’s and all the work he has done to change McDonald’s for the better. They need to bring some of these guys to America and fix American McDonald’s as it’s years behind it’s Asian versions.
