Melty cheese pizza chips (crisps)

A product of Hong Kong by the brand Calbee

Cheese pizza flavoured potato chips (crisps)

So, my thoughts?

Edible… but I wouldn't buy them again.

They taste like what they advertise themselves as I guess; a kind of off-putting cheap cheese pizza overtone that takes a bit to get used to was what I was treated to with these chips.

If I had to name a pro it would be that they're crinkle cut and perfectly crunchy.

I ate them but I won't ever pick them up again in a hurry.

Tune in next time :)

Crispy ramen snack

Product of Taiwan by the brand Baby Star They're ready to eat deep fried ramen noodles… I think?

So, my thoughts? Nah.

The little crunchy individual strands of noodles are amazing to eat, remind me of just eating them raw out the instant packet, but the flavour is a no.

They claim to be original flavour but taste heavily of one of the listed ingredients… onion powder. … Which I hate.

If they just tasted like plain raw noodles I'd be all over these but no.

Hi-Chew | Exotic fruits mix

A product of Taiwan by the brand Morinaga

Dragon fruit, acai, and passion fruit hi-chew candies coated in chia seeds.

So, my thoughts?

Like gum but better!

The textures had me googling if it was gum, but it's not, and the occasional little crunchy pops the chia seeds give make it a delightful experience to eat.

Flavours:

Passion fruit: Tastes exactly like the real thing; perfect as i enjoy passion fruit greatly!

Acai: Reminds me of a sweeter blackcurrant!

Dragon fruit: Slightly floral with a sweet almost citrus edge; it's indescribable but delicious, fave of the three!

Milk tea chocolate mochi

Product of Taiwan by the brand Bamboo House

Chocolate flavoured mochi filled with a milk tea paste.

So, my thoughts?

... Honestly? Not my thing.

It's very powdery and the mochi outside has a lovely texture, tasting faintly of sweet milky black tea but the filling is... not great. It comes apart in little chunks as I chew and it tastes not great, just like faint over-steeped tea with a strange but not completely unpleasant aftertaste.

I taste no chocolate.

Don't get my wrong, I'll keep eating them, but I've had much better.

Melon ramune soda

A product of Japan by the brand Hatakosen

Melon flavoured marble soda.

So, my thoughts?

I love marble sodas.

They're fun to open, the bottles are a cool display piece once cleaned, and this melon one doesn't taste half bad!

I always find they're a bit overly carbonated for my taste but the sweet, almost floral, fruity melon flavour tastes really nice and refreshing!

Dalgona

A product of Korea by the brand JL Foods

97% pure airy sugar and corn syrup. That's it. (yes its the funny squid game sweet)

So, my thoughts?

ERGH

It's like little honeycomb bites... till you swallow. The aftertaste is nasty burnt chemical erghh

'Tastes like I swallowed a bucket of bonfire ash' - Quote from my brother after eating one

Only good thing is the crunch airy texture had me (and my brother) keep eating them despite the god awful burntness.

I love cheese | Cheese chips (crisps) mix

A product of the Philippines by the brand Leslie's

A mix of three other cheese chips (Nacho corn chips, Clover chips, Cheezy corn crunch)

So, my thoughts?

All three types all had the same kind of nacho cheese taste (the corn chips almost being spicy) just with slightly different textures.

They were all kind of... soft, hopefully not stale? Maybe it's meant to be like that?

Yeah, it's okay. Edible.

I like the clover chips best, have a texture similar to skips.

Chocolate crispy cereal stick

Product of Korea by the brand Orion

Hollow crispy cereal sticks filled with a chocolate hazelnut filling.

So, my thoughts?

If you eat and enjoy krave cereal (those hazelnut pillow shaped ones), you'll love these! Yummy nutty chocolatey centre, lovely cereal taste and texture without being dry, and is actually crispy like they claim unlike SOMETHING ELSE I've posted about.

Solid.

Peach konjac jelly

A product of Japan by the brand Orihiro

Little pouches of konjac jelly flavoured with real peach juice

So, my thoughts? Yes :) Lovely :)

A delight both flavour and texture wise :)

Little 20g pouches of solid slightly chewy jelly that tastes exactly like real peach juice!

Charcoal condensed milk cookies

A product of Taiwan by the brand Kirigakure

Condensed milk flavoured 'cookies' shaped vaguely like ninja stars coloured black with charcoal powder

So, my thoughts?

These are not cookies.

They are corn puffs.

Other than that though, they are addicting and I powered through the large bag; there is a resealable aspect to the package but it was not used.

They have a lovely puffed airy texture and they tasted sweet and milky, couldn't get enough.

Only con is that the bag wasn't bigger!

Strawberry milkshake Oreo crispy rolls

A product of China by the brand Oreo

Oreo cookie flavoured wafer rolls filled with an apparent 'strawberry milkshake' flavoured cream.

So, my thoughts?

I bought it last year and it tasted much better that time.

It tasted so good last year and I have no clue what they've done to the recipe that it flopped so badly this time!

It's really just... okay. A mildly oreo flavoured wafer roll (that had a soft stale texture so not crispy as they claim) with a generic mild strawberry tasting cream.

Meh.

Kyoho grape flavoured green tea

A product of Thailand by the brand Oishi

A Japanese style green tea flavoured with grape juice with added Nato de Coco chunks and vit c

So, my thoughts?

I hated my first sip.

Love it now I've drank nearly the whole bottle, but dear god that first sip had me recoiling!

It has an almost overwhelming syrupy sweetness to it but once you get used to that the green tea flavour really shines!

The Nato de Coco is in small enough bits to swallow easy peasy but if you take a big sip you'll get enough to really chew at it and the pieces have a lovely grape flavour to them.

Milk tea coffee

A product of China by the brand Tai Hing

... It's a milk tea coffee. Only thing to be said about its contents is that it has a 3:1 tea to coffee ratio.

So, my thoughts?

I would gladly buy 500 of these.

First off, I'm biased as an iced coffee enjoyer. Second off, it comes in a funky little can that is a new addition to my hoard of random junk.

It has a nice coffee flavour with the sweetness and silky milky texture of a milk tea.

My god, it was a lovely lovely drink to sip and I was sad when it was empty :(

White rabbit creamy candy (normal + matcha)

A product of China by the brand White Rabbit

A creamy milk candy wrapped in rice paper that I've got in both the original vanilla flavour and matcha.

So, my thoughts? I don't get the hype.

It's good, don't get me wrong, very sweet and milky, but it's an absolute challenge to chew through the tough texture and the rice paper is flavourless and just adds a little bit of goopyness.

The earthiness the match adds though? Glorious. I actually really like that flavour.

Purple corn silk tea

A product of Korea by the brand woongjin

A drink made of puer tea and various grains (roasted corn, roasted purple corn, roasted brown rice, roasted solomon's seal)

So, my thoughts? It's purple! Yay!

Tastes like corny dirt water with a strong tea aftertaste which kind of makes me feel ill. Not my thing.
