More snacks from Japan

No progress to report my projects, unless you count ripping back many rows on Haruni to correct the stitch count to start the next section. Today I have candy from Japan.

First is Kinako and Sweet Potato Kit Kat. The Sweet Potato flavored one was a yellow color, but I didn't open the package until after I took the pictures.

Next is Green Tea flavored Kit Kat, which didn't really have any green tea flavor, tasted more like white chocolate. On the back of the packages is the phrase, "Have a break, have a Kit Kat".

Remember Pop Rocks?

My friend passed out candy that she bought while on vacation. Do you remember Pop Rocks? The candy seems to be popping up in all sorts of places. Of course, I chose the dark chocolate bar...

We let the chocolate melt in your mouth to get the popping effect of the candy. Cool! Thanks, friend, for thinking of us.

Surubabo Cookies

Last cookie for this snack time... Surubabo Cookies

Gassyo Cookies

We're opening cookies now... Gassyo Cookies.

Taki Cookies from Sado Island

Exactly what the title says - Taki Cookies from Sado Island. Don't you just love the packaging?

Noto Milk Cookies

These Noto Milk Cookies were just like a sweet shortbread. I think the packaging is pretty cool too. Somehow I can't imagine the Samurai sitting down to some of these cookies with their tea.

Pear Gaufrette

These wafers had a green cream inside. Very sweet with just a hint of pear taste. I'm surprised that they survived the trip without breaking.

I love arare (or rice crackers) from Japan. They are crisp and  refreshing. There were 7 different flavors, including soy bean, shrimp and a sweet one.

Goodies from Japan

We received a bag full of treats from Japan. Since I there are very few project photos to show you, I decided I would post pics of the treats as we sample our way though the bag. Of course there may have been a couple of things that were eaten before I could get a photo, but no worries, there still a lot to share with you.

Today, we have senbei and manju. There are two flavors of manju - chocolate and an. Both were very good!
