The have Mongolian BBQ helper in Mongolia. It’s called Airag, drink enough and you do not care what you eat. Although there are those squeamish types who would refuse to drink from a communal chipped china bowl filled with fermented mares’ milk.

I think Asian Helper has got to be like one of the four horsemen of the apocolypse or something.

@MajorMilkfunction I do not think the crazy is limited to white people in this case, it’s every one that is not Asian. I do not have a word for Asian people fool enough to buy Asian Helper.

@Panini I thought it was going to be cotton candy!

@Tara I think that they chose it themselves. I don’t know where I went wrong raising them. How could you eat something with a face so crudely evil?

@Katherine I am refusing to ask where the vague pornography comes in.

@George A good friend of mine went to a real Mongolian BBQ and said that it’s nothing like what we have and they boil an old sheep or something.

@Barbara Heh, you should see my review of Macaroni Grill’s Chicken Masala in a box. It comes with a foil pouch full of wine!

@Titmouse you said it!

Hi Tracy - Is the Asian Helper for real? I think I'll pass. I always worry when I see new products and can't pronounce the ingredients. I'll bet this is one of those. Barbara Swafford´s last blog post..What Benefits Does Your Blog Provide?

Well, I don't know about no Asian helper, but if you've ever had any of them thar bar-b-qued Mongolians you'd never go back to the helper... Tumblemoose´s last blog post..The tumblemoose community is the best

OMG I can’t stop laughing at the Asian Helper.

As for the somewhat pornographic chocolate/marshmallow pop, *shudder*

That chocolate thing was a treat? Really your hubster needs to get with the programme! Mind you, knowing kids as they are, if it's covered in chocolate they will eat pretty much anything. Tara´s last blog post..I love daddies (so let's big up their blogs!)

Asian Helper? Bwa haa!

They sell those marshmallow treats at our Mexican/International grocery. I tell my kids they are mayo and keep on unloading the groceries…

I hate Hamburger Helper, so I will not be trying that monstrosity either. Although I must confess that I am so white that I really had no idea how to make stir fried rice until I read a recipe. Then I felt like a moron for needing a recipe to learn how to make it!

Perhaps they should have named it “Crazy-White-People-who-have-no-clue-what-they’re-doing-but-want-to-be-multi-cultural Helper” That seems more accurate.
