Not our name, but our passion
Goji Berries are a sweet fruit from the boxthorn a genus of flowering plants in the nightshade family. Goji berries are used in traditional Chinese, Korean and Japanese cuisine and medicine. The berries are traditionally used either as a garnish or as a source of sweetness.
They do have sweetness reminiscent of raisins but with an unusual flavor 4 out of 10.
Li Hing Mui is a salted dried plum from China. It is often found in a powdered form when the dried plums are ground but this product is the whole plum.
The predominate flavor is salty with a slight sour tang. Not to our liking 2 out of 10

Alex and I are both sinophiles so we were very happy to see that the month’s selection for the Coin and Currency Club is China. China does have its problems with their human rights issues but they are unarguably one of the greatest countries in the world and will most likely be the most dominant country on the planet going into the 22nd century. China officially The People’s Republic of China is the second most populous country in the world with population of 1.4 billion people. It has five time zones and has land borders with fourteen different countries. Its capital is Beijing while its most populous city and financial center is Shanghai.
Alex was excited, he easily guessed the country with the clues provided
