Chaos Soup: Japanese tomato smoothie with cream cheese
Kirin Sekai no Kitchen has recently started selling a product they call Melting Chaos Soup. It's sold beside the bottled water and teas. Now, I'm not a fan of tomato soup or juice, but I liked the label so picked one up. I noticed the small pictures of tomatoes, cheese, and what I thought was basil running around the bottle. But it wasnt until I got home and read it and then really looked that I noticed the basil wasnt basil, it was mint, and there was one item I missed. Peaches. Yes. Melting Chaos Soup boasts a brand new genre in drinks. It says its like a smoothie soup that changes flavor from moment to moment. Shake well, open and give it a sniff, then bottoms up. Its a mix of tomato (55%) and peach juice (12%), cream cheese, and mint. After opening and tentatively smelling, it actually took me a few minutes to get up the nerve to take the first swig. It really did smell exactly as promised, like tomato mixed with peach juice then throw in a hint of mint. I did finally take a sip, and then another. Another. I'm not sure if chaos would be how Id describe the taste, although it did changed from moment to moment. The surprising thing was I didnt hate it. I kind of liked it. If I could change one thing, though, it might be they add more cream cheese.
