Supermarkets in October 2023

Boksoondoga has opened up at Seoul Station..

Mart 202310.

Where things sell, they really do sell, it seems.

Kickstand

Mart 202310.

What this is, is a stand that charges pre-iPhone-15 iPhones over USB-C using MagSafe.. and then I bought a 15, so I had no need for it any more..

Tangsuyuk

Mart 202310.

Tangtangjeol, the tangsuyuk day everyone knows about, came around again, so I picked some up. At this level I do not think it needs to taste any better.

Sunhagun Ansungtangmyun

Mart 202310.

It is an Ansungtangmyun with no heat at all, and once it is this mild I think it actually loses its appeal. It would go well with kimchi, though.

Kimchangsoo Highball

Mart 202310.

I had my hopes up a bit, but it is far too Scottish, an authentic sort of highball. At around 3,000 won I would not mind, but costing twice that while being short on character is a shame.

The wines at the supermarket

Mart 202310.

Putting expensive wine like this straight out on the shelf.. I cannot tell whether Lotte is in bad shape, or whether it is the wine business, or whether the downturn is just that serious..

I can spot a d’Yquem too.

Mart 202310.

Potato Chip Triple Cheese

Mart 202310.

They said they put cheese in, so I have no idea why it is sweet. A taste that seems to have forgotten what a potato chip is about, maybe.

Hershey’s ice cream

Mart 202310.

It was just about okay.

Squid Peanut Hot Spicy

Mart 202310.

There are tasty ones in the Squid Peanut range, but the overly sticky or sweet styles are not really for me. This one did not make much of an impression either..
