Maybe you can help me out.

I worked at a family-owned Japanese restaurant about 35 years ago and they served this chilled dessert that was made up of these multi-colored, gelatin cubes in syrup, with little beans. I know it came from a can but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the stuff. I would love to find some online to order but like I said, I don't know what it's called.

Do you know what I'm talking about, AsahinaKimi?

5. You might check with
Art_from_Ark or maybe Bonobo. They both currently live in Japan.

Finding cans of it for sale on teh Interwebs - not so easy. I forgot it had fruit in it:

4. I hesitate to bring this up
But your cheese balls appear to have grown pink and yellow and green mold. You might want to dispose of those before someone gets the late night munchies and isn't looking with careful eyes.

6. That's very similar to the way candy canes are made.
