rockford	Day 37 I had to check that I haven't posted these before, they were sooooo familiar... > Reveal 🔎 Then I went back through the thread... to "The Dawn Of Day 2" Nope. These are different. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. They are dried and fried noodles. Methinks. A small portion again, but with a different flavour to the last lot. I can't tell what it is (maybe chicken teriyaki?), but it's nicer than the porky one.

Jayenkai	Sounds delicious!!

rockford	I wouldn't go that far. They were nice though.

rockford	Day 38 No item yesterday. Too busy and tired after finishing nights. A little less tired now. A Strawberry candy (it says so on the packet, amid loads of Japanese text), which you can't see because of the crap photo. Poor light+poor camera=shit photo. > Reveal 🔎 It looks like a strawberry flavoured boiled sweet to me. I'm going in... Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Sometimes looks can be deceiving. This is not one of those times. It's exactly what it looks like. There's not even any sherbert fizz in the centre. Just a solid strawberry flavoured boiled sweet.

Jayenkai	Mmmm! Yup, I could go for that.
Sun, 07 Jul 2019, 11:19
rockford	Day 39 WOOT! I found some more bits that had been covered by some other non-Japanese foodstuffs! Yay! This was one of them - It rattles. Get ready for some awesomeness. Prepare yourself for what lies beneath (the wrapping)... > Reveal 🔎 Balls!!!! Loads and loads of purple balls. I tell you that wrapping was the worst!!!! It had four available pull-corners (you know like yogurts have tabs to pull off the foil top, like that). Only all four were shit. I had to resort to scissors. Perhaps I should have used a katana or a throwing star? Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. Loads and loads of sugary grape flavoured balls. I love grape flavoured stuff and these were no exception. They dispersed quickly and the flavour was gone pretty much instantly, but it was nice while it lasted. But then there was more....!!!!!! > Reveal 🔎 Lurking beneath the grape balls of goodness, like a ninja waiting to strike was something else!!! > Reveal 🔎 A piece of card. But not just any old piece of card. Oh, no,no, no,no, no! It looks as though there are Yen value symbols on the card... "Curiouser and curiouser" said Alice. "WTF?" said me! > Reveal 🔎 A ninja scratchard!!!! WTF!!!!!! This would never be allowed in this country; gambling cards in kids sweets? Holy Feck!!! The question is though, did I win anything by scratching the ninja's tummies? > Reveal 🔎 Nope. Oh well. At least I have the sweets. TBH Even if I had won, I wouldn't have flown all the way to Japan to collect a few Yen. My arms would have got too tired.

Jayenkai	Crazy!! I love grape. Why is grape not a thing, here? Mmmm... -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

rockford	Day 40 Another giant Wotsit. You know what they look like, but just in case you've forgotten - > Reveal 🔎 Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. This one was another good'un. A really nice and spicy beefy-type flavour. Shame these aren't readily available in the UK.
Mon, 08 Jul 2019, 16:25
Jayenkai	They really do sound lovely! .. well, some of them. If I had proper flavour options, I at least could avoid the dodgy ones -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Tue, 09 Jul 2019, 01:57
rockford	I've only had one dodgy one (so far), so yeah, you'll very likely find ones that you will like.
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 11:44
rockford	Day 41 Something fruity and squishy. And greenish. > Reveal 🔎 I'm really not sure about that. That green looks very mottled and... mouldy? Rating > Reveal 🔎 Vom. Vom. Vom. Yeah, I'm not eating that. I'm pretty sure it's rancid. The puffiness of the packaging was probably an indicator that something wasn't right.
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 11:46
Jayenkai	Oh dear!!!
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 11:50
rockford	Day 42 Another crispy Wotsit type thing. This is the last one. i think. > Reveal 🔎 Looks pretty much like all the others, without any herby type stuff inside though. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. A strange salt & vinegar? type flavour which is really sweet. Strange, but nice.
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 11:52
Jayenkai	I really feel like these should be available over here.. Why aren't they??! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 12:03
rockford	Dunno, but I totally agree. You can get them on Amazon - linkage \|edit\| I'm ever so tempted... But I'll wait for Christmas and get my wife to get them for me again! [EDIT2] Cheaper options on eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Japanese-Snack-Assorted-Yaokin-Umaibo-Set-Popular-import-Japan-P-P-/162551792817?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10&var=461555942888
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 12:17
Jayenkai	Ooooh....
Thu, 11 Jul 2019, 12:31
rockford	Indeed!

rockford	I've been suffering with a cold these last few days, so apologies for no Japanese snacks. My taste buds are now recovering so here goes - Day 43 A bag of little bags. > Reveal 🔎 And here are all the little bags. Filled with small, boiled sweets. > Reveal 🔎 Ratings Red packet > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. This is a flavour I've not had since I was a kid, although the product is still available. Can you remember the yellow amoxycilin liquid medication? Yep. That's what this tastes of. Really not sure what it's supposed to be. Pink packet > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. Red cherry. I love cherry. I prefer black cherry, but red cherry is good too. Silver with yellow dots packet > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Nom. Old fashioned Lemonade. Fizzy-ish. Orange packet > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. Boring orange boiled sweet. Exactly what you'd expect Green with lemons packet > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Nom. I thought it'd be lemon and lime, but it's actually honey and lemon. Not too bad, considering I don't actually like honey and lemon drinks. These taste more lemon than honey methinks.
Mon, 15 Jul 2019, 08:36
Jayenkai	Mmm.. I think I need a huge jar of boiled sweets!!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
Tue, 16 Jul 2019, 14:54
rockford	Day 44 A beef jerky type thing, but softer? > Reveal 🔎 Yep, it appears to be what I thought. Rating > Reveal 🔎 Nom. Actually, despite it's original plastic type texture in the mouth (and I mean REALLY like plastic), it became softer and gave off a peppery, beefy flavour. It wasn't Bovril type beefy or even roast beefy, but beefy in it's own way. Nothing like real jerky, either. And did I mention peppery? I love pepper. I add loads to everything. And this, was really peppery. Left my mouth feeling all spiced up for a good few minutes after eating (and a few mouthfuls of tea too). So yeah, it was OK. Which was better than I was expecting, tbh! > Reveal 🔎 \|edit\| Just noticed it does actually say "Beef Jerky" on the packaging. LOL.

Jayenkai	Mmm..!
Wed, 24 Jul 2019, 16:09
rockford	I haven't forgotten about this thread - I've still got a few more bits left. They are mainly fish/octopus/fuck-knows bits that are left. I had a packet of crispy snacks somewhere, but I'll be buggered if I can find it. They looked nice too. Frog flavoured maize balls. Or something. Anyway. I'm too busy, too hot and trying to psyche myself up to eat out of date octopus jerky - I know it sounds really appealing; my heart says "Yes", but everything else screams "No!"
Wed, 24 Jul 2019, 16:58
Jayenkai	LOL.. Sounds delish!!
