Asia has a song called "Ginger," but it's an instrumental.

Ginger Altoids. Now these, I get. You know how people online are always extolling the virtues of products, and then when you try them you think, "Huh?" because they suck? Well, not ginger Altoids. Delicious.

I just recently got hot on ginger, the taste, the smell, the idea. I never liked gingerbread much, and ginger ale just isn't very gingery (unless you get that insane super gingery extra strength ginger ale, my new #1 favorite beverage). I really think my ginger love may have started with sushi. You see, I tried it, and I hated it, but I needed to come away with an appreciation of some part of it, and so there was the ginger. Which was magical and delicious.

Now I always have a knobby bit of ginger on hand at home, and I can bring the ginger on the road in the form of Altoids. Life's good.
