Sweet & delicious = sugar coated kittens

Moderate hardness = Creating a menu this incomprehensible

Ages = Time to recover from sweet & delicious

Food for thought = Taco as for Mexico

Do not eat, do not know = Kate Moss

Eat forget = Rohypnol

Still want to eat eat = Kirstie Alley

Do not blame you first buy = Part 1, Lord of the Rings trilogy

Blame me not to buy second = Part 2 & 3, Lord of the Rings trilogy

What puzzles me the most about this is that the Chinese seems to correspond mostly to the Engrish.

If you ate “Food For Thought” with “Do Not Eat Do Not Know,” would they cancel each other out?

“Eat forget”? So that’s why Chinese food leaves you hungry again in a half hour.

Ends up “Blame me not”.

If you cook “Moderate Hardness” long enough with some “Sweet and Delicious”, would it become soft?

I eat, I forget
I do not eat, I do not know
So, should I eat or shouldn’t I?
Now, that’s food for thought!

Fragrant/Sweet and tasty
Moderate texture (well the original is literal, but inelegant)
It’s proper for young and old
the aftertaste lasts for a long time
If you haven’t eaten it you wouldn’t know,
Having eaten it, it’s unforgettable,
Having eaten it, you still want to eat
If you don’t buy it the first time, blame you-
If you don’t buy it the second time, blame me.

What a masterwork! Du Fu and Su Dongpo would turn green from envy!

Here’s what it really says:
* Sweet & delicious
* Tender
* Good for all ages
* You’ll remember the taste
* If you don’t eat it, you won’t know how good it tastes
* You won’t forget the good taste
* You’ll want to continue eating it
* If you don’t buy it the first time, that’s your fault
* If you don’t buy it again, that’s my fault
