Meiji Tanpact Cheese Biscuit with Milk Chocolate: I think I'm naturally sensitive to packaging design given my interest in visual design, but being in a foreign country where I don't know the language further deepens my reliance on food photography to make purchasing decisions. When I saw this box of biscuits, I assumed that they were plain crackers with a one-sided chocolate coating.

Pirate's Booty is the exact same rice and corn puffs of the original but has a noticeably more concentrated white cheddar flavor. It reminds me of when you eat half of a box of dried mac and cheese and are unsure how much cheese powder to put on, only to realize you've added too much and should dilute with milk. Tangy yet creamy, it's basi... (read more) 3.0/5.0
