Asian Snacks! :D


Hey, today I'm going to do a quick little review of a few Japanese snacks.
No, wait, Asian snacks. Some of them aren't Japanese. Oh, in case you guys are curious, that's how I look in a tired mood.


Okay, on to the snacks! I'm just hungry right now, I'll do manga and anime reviews another time.




Alright, so this is my small collection of manga. I know, for a serious otaku this isn't much (I have about sixty volumes here) but you have to understand that I don't have a lot of access to money. I mean, my family is well off and all, I just don't have a job so I have to earn money at home.









Right above my manga collection is-- *drum roll* ASIAN SNACKS!!
There's this great place called H Mart that sells Asian foods. I got all this with sixteen bucks which is pretty good for imported stuff. The empty Ramune bottles I already had, so I just mean the food part.







In order, the empty bottles are Peach, Raspberry, Melon, Peach, Melon, and Lemonade. As you can tell, the lemonade is made by another company.

These are some assorted Japanese snack cakes. I'm guessing they're a bit taiyaki-esque due to their red bean paste filling. I've always wanted to try Taiyaki but I've never had the chance...

Wasabi peas. They got a great kick but for some reason a lot of people don't like them. Personally, I love them.
(Why is the picture sideways?)
















There's strawberry pocky then there's... more strawberry pocky. For some reason, there are two types. This one has small bits of strawberries while the other kind is one constant color. I haven't tried this one yet. I'm hesitant until I get more money to buy pocky.

Hello Kitty assorted fruit candies. 'Nuff said.


















These things are delicious. At first the shrimp flavor weirds you out if you're not from Asia, but they're incredibly addictive. They're like chips but they're shrimp flavored.
Wait... that's practically what it is.
8.5/10








Pepero is basically reverse pocky; the chocolate is on the inside and it's plain outside. It's actually really good; it's kind of like one of those cereal straw things you can eat.
9/10









I had some squid flavored crackers, but alas, I lost them. It's annoying 'cause I spent four bucks for the bag and I have no idea where they went. They looked really good, too...




I'm off to go drown my sorrows in a volume of Ouran High Scool Host Club.

















I'll see you later! :D
