Congratulations! I'd love to try one of your tofu creations one of these days. Sorry your relationship with the other store fell through.

g- what was that chinese phonetic play on words that we came up with a while back? i must know.

This is the Chinese version of Cajun gumbo, "I gah-RONG-ti!"

(with mandarin subtitle under the "gah-RONG ti")*

hands down, the most ambitiously obscure, yet at the same time, in your face, slogan banyan foods has ever used. with that package, we had hoped to turn cajun/chinese race relations on its head... but only time will tell if we are successful.

*referring to the phrase coined by justin wilson, a cajun cook i remember from his show on pbs
