The market that I chose to go to was called Koreana Plaza and it
specialized in selling Korean food. As I went through the aisles I came across
an aisle that was filled with container foods. Since I just wanted to eat a
small portion of food I went to the aisle that had the contain seal foods. I
was attracted to buy this container food because the packaging reminded me of
the Chef Boyardee container of foods. When I went to view the picture of the
food, the food looked to me like salsa covering up some sort of meatball like
design of food.
The illustration of the food it self had an onion or the a
figure that looked like an onion right next to the food giving off the
impression that no matter what the food turns out to be it will taste like
onion. Neighboring food products around my food product chose had a similar
style of food proportion of a small blob like design but instead of the design
of an onion other food products had the design of chili vegetables. Because I
saw what seem to be chili vegetables I was discourage to buy those food
products and was drawn yet again to the onion illustrated food product. Before
taking a bite of the food product that I had purchase, I was under the
impression that it would taste spicy with a strong smell or garlic, and be very
semi solid meaty in food size portion.
When I actually took a bite I was right about the taste of the
product since it was semi spicy but more of a tomato like with a hint or both
garlic and some form of mild pepper. Also the food product was very salted. The
food product was not meat like as I ideally though when I took my first bite,
but the food product was mainly some sort of paste from a bean or vegetable.
Over all, I was right and wrong about the product and after taking a bite of
the food product I started to notice the food qualities that I was unable to
look closely at first because I thought the food product was something
different entirely.
