[RWBY] RWBY Shorts

The Arcs routinely send care packages to Jaune and his team, filled with food, drink and sweets including cultural dishes and favorite foods for Pyrrha, Ren, and Nora.

It's all fun and games until Team RWBY find out when Jaune offers Ruby a homemade cookie and a piece of pie during a midnight snack binge.
Just for some fun put in a bit of culture shock.

Ruby and Yang having vastly different opinions on finding out a hometown special is spicy candy.

Yang is a fan. Ruby thinks it's a sin against confections.

You know, having something sour and a bit savory, often enhances the candy or another sweet experience.

Even Spiciness can do that if paired up with above two mentioned flavors. Like the fruit street vendors of my hometown, cut up some Guava, sprinkle some red pepper and salt, mix it in a bag and that makes for a really good snack.

So I think Ruby is possibly missing out on some good stuff. Especially if it's like one of those sugary candy wrapped in some red pepper powder? Oooh that sounds good.

So funny thing...Miles admits that, with benefit of hindsight, he kind of regrets that they made Jaune the ignorant yokel at the beginning of Beacon in order to explain Aura and Huntsmen to the audience. Especially since Oscar would be added later on (at that point, Oscar was simply a theorethical concept as Ozpin's new host; not even a concept art or even name was in the works yet).

It gets even crazier that Miles also admits that if he would assign a specialty to Jaune or say what Jaune's greatest talent would be: it is Aura Manipulation. Especially since Aura Amp also gives an instinctive idea of how to move and harness one's Aura as a passive effect/required secondary superpower (hence why Jaune could instantly use it minutes after activation).

I'm one of those people who believes Remnant isn't too adventurous with its cooking.

There's plenty of pasta and sandwiches and pizza mostly because those things have a million variations and you can reuse ingredients across the board.

But some things they aren't willing to go out of their way for. So things like Mexican spiced chocolate? Nobody has really considered because they don't wanna waste supplies with experimentation.

Hell even stuff like fireball candies on remnant are most likely a accident when making a different candy. Too much cinnamon added during the process leading to the discovery.
