Japanese Food Review #42: Butter Ball

The folks at Butter Ball are marketing geniuses. They know that when people see orange, red, yellow, green, white and black together, they just need to have it. Also they know that people waste a lot of their time rolling butter into little balls before consuming it. Despite boasting that this product is made from fresh butter and cream, it doesn't really taste like butter at all. It actually tastes like lemon shortcake, but that flavor must sound less appealing than "butter" to the Japanese. The front of the bag doesn't even mention that there is a lemon flavor involved for some reason. I have to say, "I love sucking on a butter ball," just rolls of the tongue better than "a lemon shortcake ball."

Ratings:
Gaybot: 8   I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it would be awful, but now I can truly say, if you only try one butter flavored hard candy this year, this should probably be the one.
Girlbot: 7  The were better than she thought they'd be.
