Easiest Job Ever.
Korean life July 30th. 2007, 9:13pmWant to know what the easiest job in the world is? A Korean product designer. How do I know this? All they have to do is take an existing product and add “녹차” (nok-cha), or in English, “Green Tea”.
“Hey, we need a new design by next week. What are we going to do?”
“Do we have something with Green tea in it yet?”
“But, we sell… diapers.”
“Add green tea. It’ll sell like hotcakes.”
There is green tea flavored everything. Ice cream, hot tea, cold tea, candies, snacks, chips, you name it. Green tea is like blue raspberry. It goes where it doesn’t belong leaving unnatural food coloring in it’s wake.
At least Korea is adding healthy things to food, no matter how nonsensical neon green ice cream may be to me. There has been an absolute war on “Trans Fats” in this country, with every single product claiming to be free of that particular slow poison. If people are eating strange foods, at least it’s better for their health.
