I love how you tried to paraphrase something I said on here once, but failed to recall the cereal. I'm honoured you remembered it since the thread was unrelated to boba tea (it was about natto, which after describing it as tasting like a cross between sour coffee grinds with a yeasty/cheesy finish and the scents of rotting hay and Weeb BO, I was declared as having a gift for describing flavours).
Anyway, it's the milk after Fruity Pebbles, not Cocoa Puffs.

I'm not some supertaster or anything, though. Maybe it honestly does taste like Cocoa Puffs to you. I don't see how, though.

You realise that's not how it works, right?
It's more like

I tried bubble tea now that I'm living near china town. I really don't see the point.

It's just ridiculously sugary tea with tapioca on the bottom. The tapioca serves no purpose.

As a tea based drink, thai iced tea is better imo.
Besides, bubble tea is barely even tea. I would never compare bubble tea and regular black tea with milk.

Actually, the Zoroastrians started the holy cow thingie.
Generally, the shadow of a cow an a human female virgin were considered to be spiritually "clean".
