Anyway, my newest experience with goodeen tea – my husband bought this green tea chocolate…. hmmmm i am not even going to try it ! sorry greaan tea lovers. I will stick to my Indian Chai !

Great blog btw. I enjoy reading your reviews. Looking for the next one !

Wow! I can’t get behind your reaction to matcha. Served hot, it is great for keeping you awake during long boring meetings. And it is definitely a good icecream flavour.

7-11s don’t have slurpees in Tokyo. I miss slurpees. I would even try this one if they would just carry slurpees.

Luck O’ the Irish – A whole Twix is soooo good. Actually, I miss the Cookie and Creme Twix. Those were soooo good.

Domokun – It was total tits. Too bad it was around for a limited time, but so is this one.

Toni – OH GOD!!! Green tea ceremony tea!!! Blech! That stuff was nasty!!! It’s bitter, like a elderly virgin woman.

Barb – I’m soooo waiting for a Carrot Top infomercial. I think it would be the best infomercial EVER!

Becoming a Slurpee flavor is Green Tea last ditch effort before becoming an official hasbeen. Sort of like infomercials for celebrities, flavors have the Slurpee.

I like green tea flavored stuff and all, but in a Slurpee? I think I’ll pass.

Speaking of green tea, ever tried matcha? It’s the thicker, ceremonial green tea. Now matcha flavored stuff I really like. Matcha flavored ice cream- yum! My favorites were the matcha flavored chocolates stores sold during Valentine’s Day in Japan.

The stupid thing is that, being Japan, on Valentine’s Day the WOMEN are supposed to get the men presents. And not just their boyfriends- ALL men. They have to give all their male co-workers chocolates, which I always found to be stupid. Valentine’s Day is for romance, not for getting your co-workers stuff! What’s even more insulting is that they then created a stupid, extra holiday called White Day (Mar. 14) for women. They get nasty white chocolate instead. What a gyp.

Yeah, why was this Slurpee needed? Some poor 7-11 researcher trying to keep his/her jobby job through sheer product output?

“Quick! I need a new Slurpee product by Monday or I’m toast–doesn’t have to be good…ummmmm, uhhh, Ranch Dressing Salad Slurpee? Pizza Burger Slurpee? Pumpkin?”

I’m with you, Marvo. There are some things that shouldn’t be Slurpeed. Just stick with the basics is my motto. And that other one–Purple Vanilla whatever that was. Man, that was tits.

Green tea frappucino? Ewww. I haven’t been able to get into green tea anything. Even the actual tea.

No Twix? Really? But the cookie part is soooo good!

Webmiztris – I smell pomegranate Slurpee in my future and pomegranate brain freeze.

Chuck – Habanero definitely DOESN’T sound like a Slurpee flavor.

jenn – Actually, green tea doesn’t have much of an ass. It needs to climb stairs or get ass implants.

Brie – I used to mix the strawberry and banana Slurpees, but it doesn’t turn out so good.

Angel H. – At least they still have the usual sugary flavors. Also, Icees aren’t that bad. Well, actually I haven’t had one in a long time, so maybe they aren’t that good.

Melanie – I think 7-11 is running out of ideas. I guarantee there will be a pomegranate Slurpee in the future.

TheWarden – MANGO!!! That’s the Slurpee flavor that needs to be made! That would rock!

skibs – I’m thinking they were aiming for old Chinese and Japanese people…and quasi-product review blog editors.

I wonder what demographic they were aiming for in marketing?
Anyway, sounds gross. Thanks :)

Side note: They have something amazingly similar to this at Panera Bread too. Though I wasn’t much impressed either. (Their mango one was delicious though.)

Yeah, there’s not a point to the green tea Slurpee at all. There’s just not. Why bother trying, 711???

Brie> It looks like something that came up when I unlogged my sink. =P

Marvo> Oh, how I miss the Slurpie! We don’t have 7-11s in TN, so I have to settle for Icees at the Exxon. Me, my sis, and my dad used to fill up the Big Gulp with some of every flavor they had! But I think we would’ve passed on the green tea.

Slurpies are supposed to be a guilty pleasure! Why’d they have to go mess it up by trying to make it – yecch! – healthy?
