I have recently started to buy some chocolate brownies from Homeplus.

I must confess I love the taste of these brownies, they are delicious.

If you live near Homeplus, please try them. They come in a rectangular box, on the front is a picture of a stack of 4 brownies.

There is also a picture of what looks like a 1950s US woman and child, the girl exclaims, 'I love it mommy!'

Have you tried this brand of brownies?

Please stay on topic, this is very important to me. Laughing

Brownies are cultural imperialism.

Do they come in an off-white or maybe a yellowish box, individually wrapped (yeah, that's pretty much everything here) with about eight or so in a box? Not the real thing, but you take what you can get. They're alright.

I had one for lunch today. They are quite nice you know.

I feel very reluctant to bump an old thread when it seems I have nothing important to say, but I really feel this had to be stated publically, for the record.

I'm also bored at work, deskwarming. Laughing

Speaking of cultural imperialism, the small brownies from Coldstone Creamery ice cream stores are excellent, and cost only 500 won each.

I'll be looking into those... considering the Market-O brownies are even more expensive and of the two packs I ate, the tastes varied greatly... The first time I had one, great. The next was "meh"

The O market brownies are overpriced and not that good, but still better no brownies at all.

Actually, if you want a good chocolate fix, go to Coffee Bean, shell out 5,000 won and order that new warm choco cake that they have. I haven't had something so intense since, uh, um, er, does anyone remember the Hostess Choco Bliss from the '80s?
