Different tastes
Added 2024-09-08 12:24:58 +0000 UTCSometimes I employ something I refer to as "simplified comic translation", turning something that would be far more complicated to explain or depict into something easier to instantly recognise - in this one, a store bakery section. Originally this observation was about finnish grocery stores' self-select loose candy aisle - there are rows of boxes of different kinds of candies, and a ladle you can use to pick as many as you like into the paper bag provided, weigh it on the grocery scale and pay for them by the weight. The selections in different stores vary, but we have no overlap in our tastes.
The also included One Piece page is how my boyfriend describes this observation.

2024-09-08 16:25:14 +0000 UTCThis is seriously the largest loose candy aisle I have ever seen. I mean - EVER. We have much smaller ones and rarely here in Germany, but even in Sweden, where I have seen large shelves with loose candy, I have never seen anything even closely that large. I mean - NEVER.
