Local sweets

Doing my homework on the country, I learned that Bangladeshi sweets should be absolutely great.

So I decided to try.

There was a nice man in a local sweets shop

And plenty of sweets to choose from (this is a half, I would say)

So I got a small box and just picked up random stuff

And…it wasn’t very good. How Jade would say: “There is a reason why this local stuff is not popular worldwide”.

The three of us could only manage a bit and nobody was excited to finish the box

Some of it was too sweet and some of it had no flavour, some tasted like very sweet cream and some was just like bread soaked in syrup.

My local friend told me though that there are more sweets and that they are great, so there will be more sweet news.
