GariGari-kun Returns! (with Milk!)

So, I was just going along, doing some grocery shopping, and I decided to check out the ice cream section, because, you know, ICE CREAM. Little did I know a magical surprise awaited me there. A new special flavor of Garigari-kun Rich!

Milk! Nice piercing, Garigari-kun!

Why yes, yes indeed. It's a milk flavored ice pop. I figured this would either be disgusting like the others, or just taste like frozen milk.

By the time I bought it, drove to my friend's house, and opened it, the melting process had begun.

Looks so delicious and not solid!

Not to be discouraged, I dumped it in a plastic tray and bravely carried on. I tried to pick up the stick...

Stick only please! Thank you!
... and it came right through. So I ate it using the stick as a tiny thin spoon. My friend also tried it.

Despite the melted consistency, this was actually rather delicious. It was a mixture of vanilla soft serve and milk. The local mountain here, 大山 (Mt. Daisen), is famous for it's milk flavored soft cream, and this tasted just like that. Sweet milk. I would definitely eat this one again, hopefully in a more solid frozen form. If you want something with a lot of flavor, this is really not gonna do it for you. But if you want a subtle, sweet flavor, or really love milk or vanilla ice cream, you would probably enjoy this.

Good job Garigari-kun!
