Went to a Japanese supermarket today while waiting for my daughter and picked up some random items:
Clockwise from top left: sesame dressing, furikake, pizza sauce, fried scallions in oil, parmesan shaker.
The furikake is useful in packs like this because you get little sachets which are usually more than enough for me to use in one meal on some fried rice, white rice or something. Japan is full of stuff like this with pop culture characters on. This guy is Crayon Shinchan and he has some really crazy/funny/puerile cartoons (which often end with him exposing his buttocks) but there's all kinds like Rilakkuma, Hello Kitty, Doraemon etc.

Stopped at the maple farm. Went in the gift shop, filled with gallons and gallons of syrup, jars and jars of maple this and maple that, maple-flavored coffee, candies, etc…just loads of it.
Sign on the checkout counter - “We’re at church. Write down what you take, your name and phone number and we’ll call you once we’re back to get your credit card info. Thanks.”
Bought about $50 of maple products, including a half-gallon of syrup (what MrsT calls “sample-sized”
) and now I’m just waiting for the phone call.

I went to buy some furikake from Ocado. Then I saw the price and didn’t!
It wasn’t on special offer when I went to buy it, but even reduced to £4 still seems absurd!
I'm proud to say that I haven't bought anything at all today. My debit cards were beginning to catch fire since the missus came home.
Discount grocery store, bought some Yankee Doodle cakes (cream-filled unfrosted chocolate cupcakes), raspberry-coconut cream-filled snack cakes, and ketchup-flavored potato chips.
Also got some iced molasses cookies.

It does look small for the price. A little goes a long way though.

Yes it is a small bottle and the ingredients in it are very cheap, mind you the ‘Clearspring’ brand is always pricey.
That is a little bit on the expensive side, but it is incurring the 'it's organic' tax. The pack I bought is also 50g nett and it cost SGD $3.90 which is just over 2 quid and I found it here for £2.39

Change up Pippi's chicken with some tenders and she likes that brand of Vienna sausage.
