Very good items and a good balance between savoury and sweet
I love the Japan information sheet, I love the variety of snacks and I am always pleasantly surprised how wonderful everything tastes.
I really like everything about this! It’s got some traditional snacks and some more universal snacks with Japanese twist. Also very good selection of teas and salty/sweet foods.
