My life in Sapporo, Japan. Eating weird food, seeing weird clothes, meeting weird people, doing weird things.

Vesicles
Today's find in the coop store: "Unshu-mikan is a juicy drink with juice vesicles of mandarin oranges". A juicy juice. With vesicles. Considering people in Japan are not very good at English, do they really expect people to know words like "vesicle"? Well, thinking about it, the English that is taught here may actually start with such words and then never actually reach words that you would hear a lot in normal conversation...
