#ThirstyThursday: Xiaomei Brown Sugar Boba Ice Cream: Like McDonald’s Soft Serve With Mochi

Alright, peeps. It’s time to inject some reality into the brown sugar boba hype.

But GoodyFeed, Brown Sugar isn’t just Sugar with the brown word added in front! You think they just add some brown stuff inside and then they become brown sugar meh?

Sorry to pop your boba here, but Brown Sugar is actually just sugar mixed with brown. By brown, I mean molasses. That’s right, molasses which you can buy from Cold Storage for about six bucks a bottle.

Don’t believe me? Check Wikipedia.

Or a recipe for brown sugar.

Or this guy, who references the Sugar Association:

Now that you know all the secrets to the brown sugar hype, it’s enough bitching about molasses and time to review a product that’s born from the hype:
