Exotic souvenirs exist in the cupboard when you're connected with the globalised food chain.
My first idea was to grab this empty jam jar and fill it with tea bags I had from the five or six boxes I have of tea lying around. Yes, really, I do have that much tea lying around. No, despite my location, I'm not British.
Anyway, I opened up the jam jar and realised it kind of smelled a bit. I was reticent to put bags of tea in it, so then I went to Plan B.
Ginger! Exotic product of... (*reads label*) China! Magical land of mystery! Dragons! Kung fu! Tai chi!
PANDAS!!
Hence, the new label:
And another shot of it, after properly affixed to the container:
And the label for the back:
Who wouldn't want special ginger from China packed by pandas?

It was going to hold bags of tea... but it smelled weird inside.

Be Bold! And, apparently, slightly blurry.
chinese ginger packed by pandas
Each label is handwritten... poorly.
packed by pandas
To be soon sold in Chinatowns all over the world.
store in a cool dry place
'Only the finest Chinese ginger is picked by our team of expert pandas to go into these containers of Chinese ginger. Store in a cool, dry place for best results.' Slightly redundant for corporate authenticity.
yay for commemorative food!
