flower power


noticed how chrysanthemum tea in packets taste nothing like real, brewed counterpart? i wonder how it evolved to this point. will it continue to change, so that one day packet chrysanthemum will be a totally different creature? the only thing keeping it 'chrysanthemum' in our minds will be the yellow packaging and the yellow coloured fluid. branding will overcome our sensory judgement and render the actual product irrelevant, we will continue drinking packet chrysanthemum, the mind is fooled into likening it to the real thing.

and we shall never awaken from this stupor.
