rockford	Day 18 I know what you're thinking - something porky/piggy. Me too! > Reveal 🔎 I know what you're thinking. NanoBlocks. Me too. I've had some of those before (R2-D2 and Yoda) - they are exactly like Lego, but about a million times smaller. Looks like this might have a pig inside. A toy and some food? Cool! > Reveal 🔎 I wasn't expecting noodles! I had only just eaten a Pot Noodle, so more noodles wasn't what I was wanting. Pork scratchings, Frazzles, bacon jerky. That's what I was expecting. With a toy. > Reveal 🔎 I think I might have added too much water. The instructions are obviously unreadble to my untrained eyes. Giving it a good old stir, there's nothing at the bottom of the cup. So no NanoBlocks toy then. And no added flavour sachet either. Weird. After waiting a few minutes it was ready to eat. There was no obvious aroma reference - certainly not that I could detect. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Noodles=Nom. Nom. The noodles were thin and bland with a nice chewiness to them. No real flavour though. They didn't absorb any flavour making me think that there was none. There were no bits of meat or vegetables at all. Just the noodles and the soup. However... > Reveal 🔎 The soup=Nom. Nom. Nom. The soup had no obvious flavour that I could relate to, but it was delicious and surprising. I hadn't added too much water at all as it wasn't too thin or bland. Not too salty either, which is odd for Japanese savoury foodstuffs. Really enjoyed that. It's small, but perfectly formed > Reveal 🔎 And there was no toy. Looking at the lid it looks like it might be a token redeem thing. Maybe. Bah!

Jayenkai	Not Bah.. Oink! What a magical surprise.

rockford	Day 19 Looks mightily like some kind of bubblegum, but it's a stange shape under the wrapper (I can feel segments). > Reveal 🔎 Yep, other than the shape it's no surprise that it's bubblegum. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Fuck me this is sweet! It's the TARDIS of the sweet world - it looks small on the outside, but it can pack away tons of sugar on the inside. Think those big round pink bubblegums we had as kids (something like this) - That's kind of the flavour. Only a million times sweeter. If I've learned anything about the Japanese via their foodstuffs it's that they like them incredibly sweet or incredibly salty. There is no middle ground!

Jayenkai	I'm not so keen on too-sweet, nowadays. Although I'm not sure if that particular tastebud-change is down to hospital drama, or just plain getting old... .. it's probably the latter! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Sun, 09 Jun 2019, 15:19
rockford	I'm not a fan of sweet stuffs at the best of times. I've always have a more savoury preference.

rockford	Day 20 This cute little fella looks like it might be nice. But then again... > Reveal 🔎 Oooh, doesn't that look just divine? Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. A super-sweet marshmallow type ball surrounds an ultra sweet vanilla flavoured gooey centre. Tooth rottingly sweet from six feet, but really nice. Thankfully I only had half, as I shared it with my wife (why wasn't she around when I did the not-so-nice stuffage???)
Tue, 11 Jun 2019, 13:36
Jayenkai	He's so happy to be eaten!!!
Fri, 14 Jun 2019, 08:29
rockford	Day 21 - Yep, still going! It's a... what is it? It looks and feels like a wafer biscuit. > Reveal 🔎 > Reveal 🔎 A biscuit it is not!! > Reveal 🔎 It's actually a multi-layered spnge cake, with an iced top and bottom. Peculiar. It tastes vaguely familiar, but the flavour's not something I can put my finger on. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. It's the Okee Cakey. Not really much to write home about. And honestly, there really wasn't much to write home about!
Fri, 14 Jun 2019, 10:08
Jayenkai	Mmm. Edible Pixels!!! Wonder how much those are, and if I can get yellow, orange and blue ones??! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Fri, 14 Jun 2019, 12:34
rockford	Pixel shaped. Pixel sized.

rockford	Day 22 Yep, another giant Wotsit with a hole through the middle. I've got two more left too. Hopefully this one tastes nice; the last was foul IIRC. > Reveal 🔎 Well, that's definitely different to the last two. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. This one is delicious. Tastes kind of beefy/meaty. Very salty, as always! I could eat a truck full of these!
Sat, 15 Jun 2019, 10:13
Jayenkai	Mmmm... Sounds like a nicer flavour. Do they do meaty flavoured wotsits? Maybe Monster Munch would be as close as we have..? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Sat, 15 Jun 2019, 12:03
rockford	There used to be a BBQ Wotsit. This was definitely closer in flavour and texture to that than to a Beef Monster Munch.
Sun, 16 Jun 2019, 10:25
rockford	Day 23 Looks like some BBQ meat jerky type thing. > Reveal 🔎 Yep definitely looks like some sort of meat jerky. It's really sticky. I presume some type of BBQ sauce. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Vom. Vom. Vom. > Reveal 🔎 It was inedible. Like a piece of leather. I honestly couldn't bite into it or cut it at all. I scraped my teeth along it and got some of the flavour. It wasn't good. I have no idea what it was supposed to taste of. I can't even tell what meat it was!
Sun, 16 Jun 2019, 10:37
Jayenkai	Mmmm.. Scrumptious!!
Tue, 18 Jun 2019, 09:17
rockford	Day 24 My guess is something cheesy. > Reveal 🔎 Yep. Looks kind of like a squashed cheesy Wotsit. Rating > Reveal 🔎 NOM to the power of NOM. > Reveal 🔎 Fucking WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is so awesome. I need more of these in my life. Delicious!!!! I'm moving to Japan!!! Absolutely exactly what I expected, but then even more!! It IS a squashed cheesy Wotsit; a really, really cheesy one. But it hides a lush secret, it's actually hollow in the middle and it's filled with a sweet, sweet cream cheese (possibly!) filling. The sweet and savoury work so well together. Gorgeous. I'm sad now that it's gone and I'll probably never have another one. Whoever said "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" never tried one of these. Awesome!
Tue, 18 Jun 2019, 10:32
Jayenkai	As someone who isn't a cheese-fan. Eeeuw!!!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Tue, 18 Jun 2019, 10:56
rockford	I don't like cheese either!
Thu, 20 Jun 2019, 13:06
rockford	Day 25 I'm guessing a melon flavoured biscuit shaped like a panda? > Reveal 🔎 Well that came as no surprise at all. Gotta say, I'm not disappointed so far. But how does it taste? Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. Wow! That's a really intense melon flavour there wrapped up in a vanilla shortbread biscuit. Lovely. And oh, so cute!
Thu, 20 Jun 2019, 13:29
Jayenkai	Mmmm! Sounds lovely!
Thu, 20 Jun 2019, 14:16
rockford	I think I have another, different one in the pile of goodies. Looking forward to that now
Thu, 20 Jun 2019, 16:00
steve_ancell	rockford Wow! That's a really intense melon flavour there wrapped up in a vanilla shortbread biscuit. Lovely. And oh, so cute! And now it is SoMunched!
Fri, 21 Jun 2019, 01:52
rockford	@Steve - And I enjoyed every crumb!
Fri, 21 Jun 2019, 02:24
rockford	Day 26 A happy little strawberry thing. It's only happy because it doesn't realise it's going to be be eaten in a few seconds! > Reveal 🔎 Yep, it's a mallow thing. That probably has a strawberry centre and tastes of strawberry. Yawn. > Reveal 🔎 Yep. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. It's a mallow thing. That has a strawberry centre and tastes vaguely of strawberry. Very predictable and not particularly strong in the strawberry dept. Nothing special.
Sat, 22 Jun 2019, 13:32
rockford	Day 27 It looks like little rainbow crystals. > Reveal 🔎 These could be crystal meth. I dunno. BTW Sorry, especially to all those Japense folks that may be viewing, if the packet is upside down in the first photo. I can't tell which way up it should go! Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. They are basically really hard crystalized sugar. There may be a hint of flavouring in there - I think the green ones tasted like melon. Or grape. Or apple. Maybe. Dunno Nothing special and my teeth are now screaming and rotting.
Sat, 22 Jun 2019, 13:56
Jayenkai	Looks like something Wonka from my childhood. Was it runts? Or Nerds?? One of the two. I think., -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
