Meiji – Almond Matcha
I haven’t had Meiji chocolate products too much beyond the classic chocolate covered gummies. Maybe something about the packaging on the nuts felt too dated or old school that it never caught my eye. But…

Black Thunder – Purple Sweet Potato
My experience thus far with sweet potato flavours is, middling at best. I’ve had a few standout products, but they are awash a sea of mid or mediocre ones. Maybe it’s just me and my…
Bourbon – Rich Matcha Brownie
These are mini brownie squares that combine matcha with fudgy chocolate. I haven’t had much brownies in comparison to other baked goods like cookies. I find they are usually quite rich and heavy, and it’s…

Jagabee – Royal Purple Potato Sticks
Jagabee is a product line by Calbee that creates what is essentially a dehydrated french fry. It looks like a french fry, kind of smells like one, but texturally it’s very different. It’s been a…
