This sounds really good. Why are all the
interesting experiments taking place in
Japan?

Whoa! A 72% bittersweet chocolate Kit Kat bar!
Why would Nestle not sell that in this country?

Ah! I found the answer! According to Wikipedia,
Kit Kat bars are produced by Nestle worldwide,
except in the U.S. where they are produced under
license by Hershey.

Hate Hershey! Andy, I have a mission for you . . .

I had some back in the summer given to me by our Philippino IBM
engineer but not sure what the flavor was or supposed to be. We
guessed green tea; they were ok but nothing I'd be wanting to buy in
that flavor.

Oh yeah! For some reason there are a LOT of Kit Kat flavors in
Japan. IIRC, I used to get some unusual ones at a local Japanese
market too. My daughter was quite into Asian food--and goodies.

Good idea! Japanese market! I was thinking
about going there to replace the coffee mug
I broke yesterday. Now I've got two reasons.

(I was so unhappy at breaking the coffee mug
I had used for years. If I can find that type
again, I'll buy 2 or 3.)

Too bad. I had two mugs made some years ago with the pooping kopi
lewak lemur image on it. I was pretty unhappy when I broke the
one that I didn't give away. Of course, my saved image has
disappeared.

I have not looked at the Kit Kat offerings recently, but we were
able to find some. ISTR, that there is quite a Kit Kat following
in Japan. We sure are getting the short end of the stick here
in the United States.
