meiji Strawberry Gummies


I picked these up in a Don Quixote which is a larger discount store in Japan. They are awesome by the way. So we tried some snacks there for sure and got great deals and also sent some home back to ourselves. I picked up these little gummies to enjoy and it has a resealable zipper like a Ziploc bag. They taste like strawberries and are delicious. I accidentally left them in some heat and they melted together into a blob. Ops! Still tasted great but it was a gummy bar haha. I would get these again for sure.

YamaMotoYama Sen-cha Green Tea loose

YamaMotoYama company was founded in 1690 but was established in the USA in 1975. I grabbed this because it is a Japanese company and I love tea and I also was running out of loose tea. This bag and another one that I got was manufactured in Canada of all places from Yamamotoyama USA.

These bags have some great tea inside. It is the only "cheap" bag of loose plain green tea that I can find around town. By plain I mean that the local tea stores that sell in ounces have mixes of their teas but some of them have sencha and other types of green tea but you are paying a few dollars per 2 ounces or so. This bag lasts for awhile and I make hot tea with it I'm my pot to serve but I mostly use it to brew a large batch of green tea for the refrigerator as I love iced green tea from time to time. I make regular ice tea (black tea) but green tea is better for you I believe. Get this stuff if you can and make some ice tea, you wont be disappointed.

These D-Plus pasty rolls are delicious, they really are. They are moist just right with the moisture control pad that is inside. They are soft and peel away in a gorgeous way. This one is green tea flavored and it was quite good. The green tea taste was subtle but still wonderful. The roll isn't super large for you to regret later for devouring. I'd get this again or any the D-Plus rolls that I see coming into stores.

Cici Jelly Drink Mango



This was worth a try as I like jelly and mango as well. Like a juice bag you twist the cap off the top to get a quick drink. There were jelly bits inside the mango drink which would have been fine but over all not the best experience I have had. I probably, most likely never, get this again. It had mango flavor for sure but it might have been the overall experience not working out for myself.

Kopiko Cappuccino Candy


These are tasty. If you like Werthers then you will probably like these. These are some hard candies but they have a nice creamy taste about them and the cappuccino is great. Not to large just like a Werthers stated before. I have one once in a while keep some in the camera bag. I give them out to friends and no one has complained about it yet. 
You should grab a bag!

Glico Pocky Cookies and Cream


These are delicious! They have chocolate sticks that are dipped and creamy milk with more cookie crumbs in it. It is a pleasure to eat these and I enjoyed them quite a bit more then regular chocolate. They are the same size as the other Pocky but just much more tasty. Nice and sweet.



Get these!!!!!!!

Nestle Kit-Kat Raseberry


Aw man, so we got two bags of KitKat's in Japan. One was the bake-able cheesecake and the other was the Raspberry. It is pretty tasty and has small bits on the chocolate that gives it that extra flavor. They are small individually packed inside the bag. The color of the bag was eye catching and makes them look tasty. I couldn't get any of my friends to try it since none like Raspberry apparently. They come out with flavors all the time and it was nice to get a bag of these while I could on my trip to Japan. Nice snack size. The flavor isn't terribly over exerting but just enough to enjoy that it is raspberry. 


Grab some if you can!
