McDonald's Sakura Teritama Sandwich

This post might already be dated, but last month McDonald's had a limited run sandwich for the cherry blossom season. The sauce was pink to go with the pink cherry blossoms. The teritama series combines teriyaki sauce (teri) and a cooked egg (tama) on a pork sandwich.

Nestle Clear Taste Liquid Coffee Caffeine 97 Free

Nestle has introduced a 97 percent caffeine-free, sugar-free entry to their clear taste liquid coffee line. Interestingly, they use Clear Taste as if it is a brand, but add no trademark symbol. Something I might check into if I find the time.

Morinaga Secretary Select Pudding

In collaboration with a women's magazine called City Living, Morinaga selected a panel of 7 secretaries from their readership and had them help develop this new line. The two flavors are mellow rum raisin and delicate custard. The product name gives sense that this product is being offered to an important customer by a secretary (秘書のおもたせプリン). It works in Japan, but might not translate well outside Japan.
