Red bean bread

This actually isn't something very special/out of the ordinary, but still probably something you wouldn't see in an American supermarket/bakery/store. You'd know what it is if you're familiar with Asian bakeries though. Very yummy stuff.

Green Tea Oreo

First off, I've never seen Oreo in stick form. Second, I've never seen different flavors of Oreo. However, McDonald's also currently have a green tea (抹茶 - maccha) Oreo-flavored dessert, so I guess it's popular now?

Anyway, it sounds interesting. I might get it for a try over a weekend or something. But that's only if I think I can actually handle the probable over-sweetness of it all...

[Review] Curry-flavored chip sticks

This is a review for the curry-flavored chip sticks I posted a couple entries earlier here.

This was a disappointment, sad to say. Well, for me at least. The curry flavor was way too spicy, and didn't really taste much like curry. It was more like lots of pepper and lots of random spices mixed together. I actually got sick after a while and couldn't finish it all. And there was also definitely no potato flavor, despite it being potato chip sticks.

::sigh::

The lesson? Not everything curry in Japan tastes good.

And I had such high hopes for this......
