Hmmm…looking at this deep-fried Funnel Cake we got at SeaWorld kind of makes me want to eat it for breakfast right now.
I mean, (powdered) sugar is a key ingredient in many American breakfasts, is it not?

I was walking along a personally well-traveled path in the Japanese supermarket the other day when I noticed something out of the ordinary…the hot-foods station was unwomanned. As in, no photo-prohibitor lady with a glare in sight! With such an unexpected break, I knew what I had to do…
Over the glass case my digital camera-holding hands flew, and *click*. Black Cod for $18.99 a pound. They beckoned me each time I came near them. The monstrosities called my name like an issue of Us Weekly featuring photos of Stars Without Makeup!
I’m unfortunately talking about Stuffed Squid available in the hot-foods station of my local Japanese supermarket. Y’all know how I feel about squid…the ones in the above photo were unnaturally stretched, like Faye Dunaway’s face. (On a side note, I get sooo excited when the Celebrities and Pop Culture categories appear on Jeopardy.) I obviously had no desire to try the squid, even if they were stuffed with rice and shiitake. But I had to take a photo of them through the glass case, for you. (When the station lady’s back was turned, natch. My photo-taking suspicion was confirmed when she turned back around and said with a glare, “Otherwise, you can’t take pictures here.” I feel like I should start wearing a sign around my neck with a drawing of a camera, a smiley face, and the words “I click in peace.”)
Now, this is much more pleasing to my palate, Shrimp Tempura. You may not be able to tell from the photo, but the tempura was rather large in size (as was the squid…you know, from the stretching…*shudder*). I was only able to take two photos before I got caught, so let’s see what other photos I got to fill this post about food court fare…
I know I stated that part II would be desserts, and it is, but I’ve got one more savory item for you made with glutinous/sticky rice… |
