Wasabi seaweed chips

This really doesn't surprise me anymore. I mean, you can get normal wasabi seaweed as snacks, so why not make them into chips?

Various Japanese apricot/plum-flavored chips

These are chips that are flavored with Japanese apricot/plum (梅 - ume). I personally really don't like them, but it goes with a lot of traditional Japanese meals. Each of these have their own variation on the taste.

Faint plum flavor (ほんのり梅味 - honnori ume aji).


Plum kelp flavor (梅こんぶ味 - ume konbu aji).

Plum tuna/bonito flavor (梅かつお味 - ume katsuo aji), on what seems to originally be an edamame-flavored snack.

I think that's right. The last two just makes me really confused about the combination of flavors...

Big Bag chips

Nothing really special, but I was just greatly amused by Japan's standards of "big". Here is a picture of a "big bag" of chips next to a can of chips similar to the regular size in America.

Wait til the Japanese go to an American supermarket and see what a big bag really is!
