He-he, exactly. That is a good excuse to be illiterate.
I always thought that Japanese people has Texassian complex. They do like everything big :lol: That makes me think that fruits and veggies sold in their stores aren't healthy, cuz overfertilized. BTW, it is too hard to find here an apple of regular size and with normal oxidation. It is impossible to buy baby carrots, normal sized grapes :lol:
LOL, they make it big so it is pretty and sweeter so they can sell at a higher price. They did not put more fertiliser, but they cut off other fruits from the same plant so all the goody nutrition will go into that single fruit that remains (and get big)
i remember seeing one talk show stating that there was ever situation where these information were false... when they did a deep check :P not that all were false... it's just ridiculous to buy a "sqaure" watermelon as well which taste the same as a normal round one.
Haha maybe they exaggerated some parts :P Yes I saw the square watermelon and my friend, who tasted it before, admitted that it tastes exactly like a normal watermelon, nothing special! But they usually buy it to decorate, not to eat...
Because my photo of the markers received so many shares, I realised that many artists are interested about the markers and perhaps want to know where to buy them from. Hence I wrote this guide for artists to shop in COPIC heaven aka Tokyo. ★ UPDATE NOV 2017: Please refer to my new article for latest updates on COPIC marker shopping! >>> Ultimate Guide to Copic marker shopping in Tokyo, Japan
Because my previous guide "Where to buy COPIC markers in Tokyo", was an all-time hit with 30,000 page views, I decided to do an updated version for all illustrators who are planning to buy COPIC markers in Tokyo.
Work began in April after persistent requests from fans to do LINE stickers. I first did a focus group on Patreon to gather feedback and Kurone Shizuhi, a very hardcore LINE user, suggested the most changes (Thank you Shizuhi, Reventon and Jerome!) After finalising the chosen 40 stickers, I inked it and sent it to my assistant to colour. Then it was returned to me a week later and I continued to clean up the lines and tweak the colours for another week or so (on and off). I finally submitted on 18th May excitedly and announced on my Instagram:

In America, there are specialty health stores who post background and/or history to their 'organic' produce.
ReplyDeleteThat's good, because it would convince me more about how organic they are… but still… they can lie about this can't they?
