I'm drinking something called Bubble Tea right now for the first time. It has these little black balls in it that have the texture of gummy bear, but really no flavor. I don't know what they are, I don't know if I want to know. All I know right now is that this stuff is good. I got it from a thai restaurant down the street, I recommend you all try some.
