An Introduction to Japanese snacks and candy. ^^

Umaibo、うまいぼ,  Delicious Stick.

So, we'd like to take you on a fun and educational tour of Japanese snacks and candy. :)

To start with we're going for a staple and traditional favourite, the mighty Umaibo!

The Umaibo is a corn puff treat. Basically a hollow stick of corn puff, pretty similar to most corn puff chips but single serve, around 6 inches long and comes in a range of almost 20 different flavours.

Pizza, Cheese, Vegetable Salad, Corn Potage, Salami, etc. Also traditional Japanese flavours like Mentai, Teriyaki and Shrimp Mayonnaise.

Released last year was our personal favourite, the ' Premium Umaibo! ' :D

Longer and stronger and a lot more yummier! ^^

The Premium Umaibo comes in 3 unique flavours. Wasabi Steak, Cheese Camembert and Mentai.

If you've tried normal Umaibo then you have to do yourself a favour and level up to the Premium, trust me, it's worth it! :D

Umaibo are super versatile too. You can just munch it, crush it and eat it in a sandwich, crush it and add it to a salad or as a topping on a pizza. ^^

If you've done any of these then please feel free to post pics on our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/tokyomunchies/ or share them with us here on twitter. https://twitter.com/tokyo_munchies

We'd love to see your creations and will be making our own too. You will see them here soon on pinterest, https://jp.pinterest.com/tokyomunchies/pins/

So, hope the Umaibo introduction was helpful and stay tuned for our next Japanese snacks and candy intro. ^^

Arigatou!
