Black coffee will have to suffice for the time being.
The Mint Oreo that I had the other day was from Baskin&Robbins. The only Ben and Jerry's sold in Japan is in supermarkets. But in the US scoop shops, you can also purchase B&J 'seconds.' These are pints that didn't meet quality control due to OVER-inclusion of the various bits and pieces; i.e. too many chocolate chunks, too much fudge, or too many almonds, etc., etc., and these 'seconds sell for half the price of regular pints.

But tis night time now, and as I really don't think I should try to ship a half-empty bottle of rum, I guess I'd better drink a glass!
