Q: Have books or shows you loved ever influenced you to buy something referenced in it? Or reminded you of it? (Not merch)
For example, your favorite character is described to wear a red & white raglan tee, so you buy one when you see the opportunity. Or, you often read them eating X instant noodles, so you are tempted to try it yourself.
Sweets: I’ve bought clothes before that reminded me of Pokémon game protagonists that I liked
kirio — Idk if it counts but white peach oolong. It’s always been my fav but reading Deliberate Mark made me buy so many more white peach oolong flavored foods 😂
gaeatiamat —I absolutely must make scallion pancakes. Every time they are mentioned I start to drool.
Uncooked instant ramen straight from the pack as a snack… and guess what… I liked it! 😆
Adding stuff to cooked instant ramen, which I do wuite a bit now, like egg, cheese, tuna, spring onions etc.
Soju, which I love now (prefer ‘classic’ to flavoured).
Desperate to try tteokbokki and too many of the dishes mentioned in foodie novels on here, to mention!
i used to CRAZY over grape f*nt*.
history (that you don’t care, but i’ll still tell you): me and my friends loved everything about the prince of tennis. each of us had a nickname derived from our favorite chara.
the “ochi” in my user name was given by my friend not only because i’m the shortest in the group. it came from “ochibi”, nickname of echizen ryouma. he was my favorite character, and he drinks grape ponta (the anime version of f*nt*)
so…
i even bought that F sport brand hat too.
Folding fans
ah yeah. it so crazy. i bought a lot of stuff to cook samgak, maki ect. my last pan is square, guess what for ? and of course i bought lot of bowls. But, i still can’t eat soja !
