Kasugai Tsubu Gummies – Halloween

Kasugai Tsubu Gummies – Halloween

Kasugai is known primarily for their gummy candies. They have a wide range of gummy products that have been around since forever. The name might not ring a bell, but I assure you if you’ve…

Tirol Chocolate – Tokyo Rusk

Tirol Chocolate – Tokyo Rusk

I’ve always found it interesting how many souvenirs or gifts that are commonplace in Asia are basically 70% packaging, 30% actual product. Most times the over-packaging leads me to believe the products aren’t nearly as…

Bourbon – Gummy Mozza – Yogurt

Bourbon – Gummy Mozza – Yogurt

Sometimes I wonder why the Japanese snack makers seem to be so much more creative and willing to take risks on strange, novel candy ideas. Is it just a matter of consumers more willing to…

Smartfood – Jalapeno & Cheddar Popcorn

Smartfood – Jalapeno & Cheddar Popcorn

Popcorn is the ultimate movie time snack. It’s relatively quiet, comes in big buckets, and is nice and light so you don’t pass out from a food coma or anything. For me, the key selling…

Panda Licorice – Natural Raspberry

Panda Licorice – Natural Raspberry

DARS Chocolate – White Mint

DARS Chocolate – White Mint

I haven’t had chocolate mint ice cream in a very, very long time. I guess this is sort of a proxy, or interim between not having any and when I inevitably do, which I can…

Tirol Chocolate – Petite Mix

Tirol Chocolate – Petite Mix

Part of why I enjoy following Tirol releases is because of the consistency in their sizing. It’s that same consistency that makes something like today’s product fascinating. I don’t particularly find Tirol enjoyable because of…

Miss Vickie’s – Sweet Chili Sour Cream

Miss Vickie’s – Sweet Chili Sour Cream

Being from the Frigid North, we didn’t have many beloved brands that start out with humble beginnings on home soil. Most of the brands and snacks we had were imported to us from our neighbors…

Hi-Chew Doubles – Watermelon and Melon

Hi-Chew Doubles – Watermelon and Melon

I’m back at it again with another Hi-Chew Doubles flavour. They really are milking this line of flavours for everything they can huh? I guess if you throw any combination of two popular flavours you’ll…

Asobon – Fruit Mix Animal Gummies

Asobon – Fruit Mix Animal Gummies
