Amanda – Nah. Unfortunately, some questionable decisions I made with some questionable dealers of pharmaceuticals in the past prevent me from giving out my name to most nationwide contests.

Eryn – I actually enjoy the red fan that they have back there. I can only imagine what type of Asian exploitation films the graphic designers must have been watching when they made the box.

Meredith – Sadly, I was in elementary school when those came out and I was not allowed to drink coffee.

Karen – Thanks, Karen. It’s a good thing that Marvo pays illegal immigrants to run his website or else he’d see our comments about him.

Sam – I didn’t experience this, but thank you for making me paranoid about mucusy discharges every time I eat an egg roll.

demondoll – I’m not sure, I have only recently frequented Trader Joe’s. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for egg roll or egg rollish products in the future.

Kylie – Ah, the ever-present rooster sauce. Is there anything you can’t make edible?

liz – Yes, I realize that these egg rolls are probably about as Asian as Kobe Bryant, but I have gone far beyond the point of caring anymore.

Chuck – I’m not starting any boy bands with Marvo, that guy would spend more time getting his chest waxed than working out our synchronized gyrations.

Marvo – I just can’t shake the feeling that it’d be hard to promote the first singer with a pie pan for a face.

Shannon – This is true, but I also said this about the saltine crackers I found under the fridge this morning.

SheRa – I’m actually glad I didn’t get Japanese sensations — too much hentai and poison blowfish in those boxes.

Re Sam: greasy I can understand, it’s egg roll. We may not like it, but greasy sometimes happens. Sticky? Without dipping sauce? Ew!

Trader Joe’s used to have a pretty good lumpia- wait, no- egg roll, didn’t they?

I’ve bought these before and was perplexed with the odd, sticky substance they exude after baking. That sets up a ton of punchlines, I know, but they were strange.

Ace, you’ll always be our Asian Sensation (don’t tell Marvo, though, he’ll be jeaous).

I am SO late in responding to this, but:

Doesn’t anybody remember the 7-11 Café Cooler that debuted in 1998? That died a quiet death but I guess they couldn’t leave well enough alone. (Actually, I liked those.)

Well, it must be authentic as there is bamboo on the packaging!

I think Chung’s makes a pretty decent eggroll. And they microwave pretty well, despite what Chuck says.

Eggrolls are almost always overrated IMO.

Did you enter the contest?? When you win could you blog about her?

Ooh! I didn’t see that line.

Everyday Asian for any occasion may not be very pc for food but I just might respond to that if I saw it on craigslist under casual encounters.

That is if I looked in the casual encounters section. Which I totally don’t

Is it just me or does “Everyday Asian for any occassion” sound less than p.c.? That comment alone leads me to have deep, deep concerns about the authenticity of the “asian style sensations.” (Ohh, although I am a fan of the japanese style sensations – so funky!)
