X Cookie

They are really trying around here to make signs,posters and just about anything both in English and Chinese. I am sure it is not easy! And sometimes it is just plain funny. Take tonight, when after we got done eating the cookies, we read the wrapper:

"X Cookie"
As a more delicious and healthy foods, the bread is made of healthy raw materials such as the brown rice or the black wheat containing abundant vegetal cellulose and added natural calcium and carotene. Keep the daity and pay attention to your health. X Cookie's Product let you find everything fresh and new. You will find that the cake can made of not only cream but also fruit and fresh milk, not only mounting color, but also spurting paint and carve just like a relief sculpture as pure and noble as ice. So the fashionable Shanghai people enjoys X's Cookies.

Not to worry ours did not spurt any paint just a lot of laughs!
