Snapshots from South Korea: Patbingsu, a Popular Shaved Ice Dessert

I thought this originated in Taiwan.

I was always found it funny that the "Food is a Weapon" poster with its depiction of leftover bones is found in the restroom at Angelika Kitchen, a vegan restaurant, in NYC.

@xiaochi: I don't know who made it first (didn't mean to imply that it originated in Korea), but there are similar shaved ice desserts in different parts of Asia.

Actually, I think all of them sound pretty sensible.

@marchpane: Funny!

Love those propaganda posters. Wacked-out, wannabe hip and current artwork and layout, probably always constrained by bureaucrats.

But I have to say, no one (not even the Chinese) has anything on Soviet Russians for over-the-top Politburo-style sloganeering, backed up by hilariously-idealized figures.

What, am I the only one who still brings my waste fats to the meat dealer for explosives?
