Cultural differences

Dear friends recently left us to return to Malaysia. They gave us some Boh Lemon Myr­tle tea as a part­ing gift.

It’s nice — not a fla­vor (or flavour) you will eas­ily find on the shelves of your local super­mar­ket in North Amer­ica or Europe.

So first, myr­tle is a tree, I think. That might hurt their mar­ket­ing efforts, should they try to launch in the States. Sec­ond, we rarely put sin­gle quote marks around the title of any product.

For those of you who are into Face­book, as of an update to this post, Boh Tea is liked by 17,019 people.

    At a Chi­nese store in Arling­ton, I’ve seen avo­cado ice cream, grass jello, green bean pop­si­cles, and var­i­ous other odd flavors.
