Yogurt in a Bottle
By Jian Shuo Wang on 2008-09-11 02:13 · BeijingIn Beijing (and in other north cities in China, like Luoyang), yogurts are sold in the small bottle, like coke.
I love this kind of Yogurt a lot. Didn’t see any of this kind in Shanghai, but in Beijing, it seems most store selling ice cream or coke sell it. You have to stand at the store to eat it because you have to return the bottle to the store. I love this unique experience in Beijing a lot.

Bottle or not, I miss the Yogurt in China. The Yogurt in the States are much sweeter, not the same taste as the ones in China :-(

I used to drink a lot of this "fat boy" yogurt when in Beijing. The shape of the bottle is lovely and I even collected a few and brought them back to Shanghai! (You sure the bottle must be returned?)
Now back to business :) This morning I compiled the English page of our site and wanted to add a few links that can help the overseas visitors, as a fan of your blog, I certainly put your works as part of it (see here: http://www.jiajiasunshine.com/?page_id=75)
My question is - can I have an integrated one, that is, one link that includes all "discover Shanghai" and "Living in Shanghai" items together? I think that would be great.
Thanks a lot and enjoy the Beijing yogurt!

The stores selling the Yogurt are on the bank of Yellow River(Flows thru the city), and a few tables are near the store.At first I saw some bottles were on the table and no idea what is the use till some young people drinking it and left on the table.I don't drink too much Yogurt in shanghai but I tried 2 bottles there,for fun and it is really thick and tasting good.You can sit on the bank,enjoy the beautul scenery of Yellow river.BTW, I also visited the famous Steel Bridge across the river, named as Zhongshan.
This is my second time to make comments here,I hope I can bring something new to all, forget the not good written English, just want to share something.
Does anyone have a recipe for Beijing peanuts? I ate at some street shops and they would serve peanuts with their shells on soaked in some type of light vinegar. Delicious!
