Honestly, when I was in Singapore, I hardly snacked. It’s an entirely different story here in Japan though.
Somehow even the usual flavors looks about a million times more appealing. Japan also makes a lot of unique and funky flavored snacks. Not to mention all the 限定 (limited edition) flavors!!! XD I’m an absolute sucker for those lol.
I’m like a moth to a flame when it comes to snacks in Japan. I try not to allow myself near the snacks area in supermarkets or conbinis because I easily go out of control :S
Let me share with you the reasons for my addiction. In pictures ;D
First, the more traditional Japanese snacks:

A small round mochi (glutinous rice cake) stuffed with red bean filling and a WHOLE STRAWBERRY

This one is a “modern” version with the addition of milk.

I love raw hatsubashi (top left), which is made from glutinous rice flour, sugar and cinnamon. It has a soft, mochi-like texture and usually wrapped around red bean paste. In this case, it’s green tea filling!
Leading on to biscuits:

Delicious when you chill and eat!



Vanilla white chocolate mmm.




Now on to candy!



And yes, avocado shrimp. Sounds delicious, but actually it was quite disappointing. No taste of shrimp at all, and the avocado was barely-there :(
Now on to chips… my biggest weakness among them all.

Before you scrunch your nose at tuna, it’s actually very mild and not off-putting!
Again, it’s 期間限定〜



A twist from the usual frito lay, no?


期間限定〜

Strange thing is, I don’t even like pepper. Or bacon. But I was intrigued at this weird combination of selection and flavors.

Scallop butter flavor, this one is!

Strangely good!

How to resist buying something with such cute packaging?!
Oh, also 期間限定〜
Ahhh, how did you find the interesting mix of flavors offered here? I only posted what I managed to find pictures of… so yeah, this unhealthy love is quite bad T_T
But ya, I assure you I’m not like stuffing my face with snacks all day. I eat at most one a day! (ok, very occasionally two. but sometimes zero too!) My BMI is actually in the underweight range, so I can at least say I won’t get diseases because of obesity lol.
Halloh I am drooling… Hope there are some nice limited ones released when I visit ! *EXCITED*
Sure have one.. There always are interesting flavors to try! :D
