WE'VE BEEN HAD

Exhibit A:


Notice there is a notch taken out of the top of the milk carton

Exhibit B:


Notice there is no notch taken out of the top of the milk carton.

Exhibit A & B:


Why is this significant? Well we've recently been informed that a lot of milk they sell in Japan isn't 100% milk, it's a combination of regular and reconstituted powdered milk. Not that big of a deal, but we never really liked the milk here, and now we know why. We're cheap, and usually just get whatever's the lowest price, but I am completely willing to pay 20-60 yen (20-60 cents) more to get normal milk. If there's a notch on the top, it means it's 100% milk. If there's no notch, it contains milk, milk powder, and water. Ick. We like milk again, yaaaay! Thanks Pat, for contributing to our Japanedumacation!
