Reply to comment by JohnJohnston in To Restaurants: Sakura blossoms don't taste like cherries by glopmod

"I got what I asked for and am upset"

A you problem

If you order the sockeye salmon with your cherry blossom martini and are mad you got neither socks nor eyes, that's not the fault of the establishment

I'm sure restaurants will be glad to put a drink on the menu that annoys more people than it satisfies. Clearly how successful businesses are run.

Sounds like you not liking how local restaurants capitalize on the cherry blossom tourism is "a you problem".

I think it's ignorance on the part of restaurants.

​

There are also a lot of "successful businesses" that cater specifically to... serving what they say they are serving, even if someone might not have heard of it. It's why a cheap Americanized roll of sushi with spicy mayo and avocado costs a fraction of a piece of fish that the person who is upset their sakura drink doesn't taste like the wrong thing would say "ew, it's raw."
