Yotchan Cuttlefish Snack: Bought this at a 7-11 on my way home mostly because of the packaging. I didn't bother translating anything about it in advance, so I was in for a surprise. Let me cut to the verdict: this is a truly awful snack. It tastes like white vinegar and salt and has a chewy yet stale texture like Bubble Tape that's been sitting around since the 90s.

I also r... (read more) 0.5/5.0

7Days Mushroom & Cream Bake Rolls: Because my mom is a nurse, we rarely had canned food in our house. This means I was shielded from classic American soups, including cream of mushroom. To this point in my life, I have yet to have a bowl of cream of mushroom soup, but if these flavored bagel chips are any indication, I am happy to be in my position. I did not purchase them by choice; I received them in my latest gifted #munchpak. The smell of the chips is extremely potent, with an overpowering mushroom odor, and the taste is ...
