It's basically sprite and milk. I know it sounds terrible, but I don't hate it.
Red Bean Paste
What could be better than boiled red beans and sugar, mashed into a paste? OK, I can think of several things, but, again, I don't hate it. Red bean paste is used in many different ways.
1.Bungeoppang
It is a popular street vendor food. It tastes like a waffle with red bean paste filling. The traditional bungeoppang is shaped like a fish, but I like these Dalki snacks I found in Insadong.
Dalki is a popular Korean cartoon character. I don't know much about Dalki, other than she is a strawberry, her boyfriend is a watermelon, and she hangs out with a guy with poo on his head. For some reason, Koreans seem to have an obsession with poop. I'm not judging, just making an observation. (check out www.dalkiworld.com)
2.Patbingsu
It consists of ice cream, red bean paste, corn flakes, fruit, chewy jelly bits, and pretty much anything else one may want to throw into the bowl. Flavor overload? I say so.
3. Red Bean Popsicle
This is definitely not my first choice in the frozen treats section, but it's edible in the "someone gave me a popsicle, and I don't want to offend them" sort of way.
Squerky...Squid Jerky
A person cannot throw 100 won without hitting a piece of squerky. It's everywhere. I tried it once. That was enough. I'm done. Moving along...
The Ultimate Sandwich
I try to stay away from bread, but working next to a french bakery has made it sooo hard! My favorite sandwich at Paris Baguette is comprised of toasted bread, ham, cheese, marinara sauce, peas, and corn. Don't knock it 'til you've tried it, my friends! It is aju mashisoyo (very delicious).
