There’s a SPAR supermarket (the European chain) close to my hotel in China. That’s where I usually go for my fix of beef jerky, biscuits, fruit, and cheap stationary. It’s also my main source for sugar intake while in China. This time, the sugar came in the form of a Sugar Encrusted Marshmallow Doraemon Lollypop. Just typing that brought me closer to diabetes.
Doraemon is actually quite popular in China. It’s touched the hearts of many children through the countless official and unauthorized goods. This particular incarnation of Doraemon was just staring straight at me at the checkout counter with that sly wink in its eye. The packaging looked all official, so I decided to try it out. The Marshmallow body was nice and soft, the icing bits were crisp and light . I had two big bites, but I couldn’t really stand the intensity of the sweetness, so I wrapped him up, and sent him on his way.
P.S. There were no gadgets in his stomach. What a scam.
