Cocoa Loco

Here's one thing I was crazy about when I was in Tokyo.



The thing with drinks in Japan is they aren't sweet. As Mark pointed out, even their sodas aren't that sweet.

I guess that's the reason why I like Van Houten Cocoa so much. It has that rich, chocolate flavor, but isn't sweet. So, you taste the creaminess of the chocolate without being overwhelmed by the sweetness of it all.

Despite Mark's warnings, I'd find myself finishing one carton of this in one sitting. And before I flew back to Manila, Mark even surprised me with a small box of Van Houten.

Maybe they have this in some Japanese grocery somewhere in Manila.
