Gula-Gula Victory Cappuccino Sweet (circa: within the last 10 years)
I found a few of these stashed at the back of one of my desk drawers today in my "emergency storage" section. It might sound strange, but I believe that such a stash is vital to have (I said [in]
emergency!), and was proven right this morning when our office tap water went on the fritz (or, more technically: brown) because a pump in the depths of the building broke...or something....
Anyway, this left me without the ability to make tea and only the giant-water-cooler-bottled-water option. This is really not appealing to me early in the morning when I'm desperately needing my tea, so I raided my drawer stash as I suspected that I might have a few cappuccino sweets buried somewhere in the back, and I was right.
Now, I don't know how old these things are, but I'm sure they've been designed to withstand a nuclear explosion, so I took my life in my hands, though with no real threat (unlike
this experiment or
this experiment, which I refused to test), and tried one. After all, "quality conserved within this special packaging".
The sweet in the picture looks rather gross, I know, but that's because it has lost its highly polished sheen, since it's been buried in darkness for a while. However, contrary to the opinion of most people I work with, aesthetics aren't everything, and it tasted just fine.
