Nice topic
Are you chocolate mint?
I am chocolate mint
Yes
I am
I am in the chocolate mint dough
Are you in the chocolate mint dough?
I'm sorry I'm not
You are not in the chocolate mint dough?
I'm sorry but I'm not
Okay
Okay
We're gonna have a little fight here
Okay
*laughter*
You don't like it?
You hate the flavor?
It's not that I don't like it
But I'm simply not in the chocolate mint dough
Let me guess
No one has invited me
Let me guess
It tastes like a toothpaste
Is that what you're gonna say?
Ah
A little bit
Yeah
Is that the reason why you hate it?
No I don't hate them
I don't hate them
You don't hate them?
I don't like it
You just were never invited
Just I don't
I'm not in the chocolate mint dough
You're just not in the chocolate mint dough
I'm not a supporter
You're not a supporter?
Just simply just
You have no opinion of it
You're not interested in it
You don't mind if it goes through your mouth
But it's not that you like enjoy it so much
Right
No?
I have so many flavors that I prefer
That you rather eat over the chocolate mint dough
Sorry but I'm not a supporter of chocolate mint dough
Nachos okay
He was a
You are in the chocolate mint dough
Yes I am in the chocolate mint dough
But I also do have other flavors that I would choose over the chocolate mint dough
Is that possible?
That's possible
Really?
Yeah it's possible
You can be a part of so many different parties
Yeah I like K-pop I like J-pop I like
03:00
I don't know we're talking about ice cream flavors
Yeah
Not talking about J-pop so music
You can choose multiple categories if you'd like
I mean of course it's music and it's ice flavor
You can
There's no problem there's no conflict
We're talking about ice cream
Ice cream flavors
Yes
So the chocolate mint is the best flavor to you?
It is not the best flavor
Okay
Maybe we're in the same line here
Maybe we're in the same zone here
I'm not sure
But you love ice cream
I do love ice cream
I do love ice cream
And that fact really levels up my love for chocolate mint dough
Even if my chocolate mint dough priority is not as high as the other flavors
Like the majority of people don't like ice cream as much as I do
So that I am just qualified to be in the chocolate mint dough
What is your favorite flavor?
They're not flavors they're more textures and thicknesses
What I prefer
It's not the flavors
Sorry about that
If it's a milky ice cream or like a Shabu-Shabu ice cream
You sound very professional
I do sound professional because I am a professional
I do a lot of things
Versus a Garigari-kun versus like a Palm
A Parm
Okay
You see the difference right?
The Garigari-kun has a very shoddy flavor
I like the Parm which is like a very milky very like
Creamy
Creamy one thick ice creams
Yeah I like those more
Okay so flavor doesn't matter?
Flavor not as much as the textures
Okay
So the Parm texture with like cherry taste
Yeah I would still enjoy it
Parm texture with like blue Hawaii taste
Yeah sounds great
Parm texture with like kimchi-jjigae
Yeah that's crazy
That's a little crazy okay
We're talking about a reasonable flavor here
Okay like a usual flavors
Yeah it's usual
I do
Kimchi flavor is not a usual
That's not ice cream
That's not ice cream
That's not ice cream
That's a meal
Everybody likes kimchi-jjigae
No one does
What?
I'm not talking about kimchi-jjigae itself
I'm talking about ice cream flavor here
Actually what I like even more as a texture
Is a very hard soft serve ice cream
A soft serve ice cream is a soft cream in Japanese
Soft serve ice cream I like
You know soft serves are very like
They're known to be softer than the ones you find at the convenience store
Right?
You don't talk about?
No I'm sorry
If you compare Parm and the soft serve ice cream
A soft serve ice cream is softer
06:01
It's easier to melt
It feels softer on the tongue
Yeah the one you can buy at a sightseeing spot
Yes
Soft serves
Okay okay
That's softer right?
Yeah
But in the category of soft serves
There's the harder ones and there's the softer ones
Oh really
There's the looser ones and the tighter ones
I love the tightest soft serve out there
Wow okay
Yeah
So can you
I kind of got the concept
You got the concept okay
Logically understand it
Can you name something?
Okay okay so
If you go to Zaku Zaku there's a store called Zaku Zaku
I think it's a
Is it a store?
It's a store
It's a dessert shop
Okay
I think it's a cream puff shop
I think it's known for Zaku Zaku texture
Like if you bite into it it feels very Zaku Zaku
That's why they
The cream puff
The choux cream I think
The puff bar
The puff bar is a little Zaku Zaku
I've never had the cream puff though I was not interested
But like
But that's why they named it Zaku Zaku
But they also sell soft serves
Try their soft serves
It's very tight and very hard
And I have never had a soft serve that's very hard
Like right hard but not as hard as the ones you find at the convenience store like the Panamu
That's way too like that's like hard like rock solid you know but like
Rock solid but yeah
But like it's still soft it's still like
Like meltable
Yeah because it's
Very meltable
Served by the machine and
Yes
But it's harder you know it's tighter
Wow
And I like love it
I love it
I they don't sell that much of a tight soft serve
I've never seen it being served anywhere
Is it more milky or
A little more rich
Um it's milky and rich I would say
But like it's not like
Milkier and richer than the other soft serves out there
So it's just harder
It's just harder yeah that's all
Okay
You prefer the harder one
Yes I do
It's really it's really nice
I don't know how else to explain it's just really nice I don't know
You're gonna have to try it you have to try it on your first self
But if you like harder ones just go to the convenience store
That's different that's different right
What?
That's not you can't bite off
A Panamu with your tongue can you
Okay
Right
You can't you can't scoop it with your tongue
Uh-huh
You can't do that
Yeah
You can do it with a zaku zaku ice cream you can't
