Haul - Japanese sweets and snacks

When my husband and I traveled to Japan, we bought a lot of Japanese sweets and snacks. Believe it or not, I don't eat sweets and snacks everyday. We bought a lot, but we will eat these little by little. :)

These have been our favorite since we were little. I'm going to share with you what we got in Japan.

These snacks are Baby Star Ramen  by Oyatsu Company. These look like instant ramen, but these do not need to be cooked. I really love these! I bought these at 89yen a pack at discount store.

This snack is Sayaendou by Calbee. This is made with peas. I bought this for 89yen at discount store as well.
In the U.S., I have also seen ones with different name, Calbee Snack Salad Snapea Chips, at Trader Joe's before. I don't know whether or not the taste between Japanese one and American one are exactly same. These probably taste different because for example Nissin Cup Noodles taste completely different. I like Japanese one, but American one tastes terrible. :P  

Sayaendou 89yen (83g)

This candy is Milky by Fujiya. Milky has been selling since 1951 in Japan. This soft candy has been around for forever, and everybody loves it.

Milky 100yen (120g)

 This candy is Sumiyaki Coffee Candy by Irie-seika. Many coffee candies are made by different companies in Japan. This candy was 100yen at discount store.

These candies are Nama Okinawa Kuroame by Matsuya-seika. My father-in-law bought these for us at drug store. I think these were selling at 100 to 150yen for each.

These are Jagarico by Calbee. These are stick snacks and made with potatoes and cheese. These are snacks which I like the most from Japan. I bought these at 100yen for each at discount store.

These are my favorite chocolate, Ghana Milk Chocolate by Lotte. Japanese chocolate is not expensive, but the taste is better for me. I bought these for 89yen each at supermarket.

These are chocolate biscuits, Alfort by Bourbon. I bought these for 89yen each at supermarket.

These are Tirol Choco by Tirolchoco Comapany. My husband bought these for 100yen at Daiso, 100yen store.

Tirol Choco 100yen per pack (9 pieces per pack)

There are nine different pieces of chocolate in this package.

I think this dark brown one is original. When I was little, it was 10yen each.

These chocolate are Goen-ga-aruyo by Tirol Choco Comapany. My husband bought these for 100yen for two at Daiso as well.

Goen-ga-aruyo 100yen for two rolls

 Goen-ga-aruyo means that there is 5yen, and it also means that there is a chance to have happiness, and the back of the package tells your fortune.

This is designed like Japanese 5yen. When I was little, I could buy it for only 5yen each.

These snacks are Umaibou by Yaokin. There are many different flavors of Umaibou. When I was little, I couldn't clearly recognize each flavor. However, when I ate ones this year, I was surprised with the flavors. Some tastes were very similar to the real flavor, such as Gyutan, Sarami and so on. Umai means good taste, and bou means stick in Japanese.   

Umaibou 100yen for ten

Each Umaibou is only 10yen. My husband bought 10 for 100yen at Daiso.

I bought these at my sister's workplace. :)  These are only available at Kurobou-seika, which is making brown sugar sweets and snacks in Fukuoka, Japan. You can not buy these at any other store.

 This is Karintou Endomame, which is a snack made with brown sugar and peas. I really love it! I bought 6 packs for 1100yen.

This is Fukudaikoku, which is cake made with brown sugar. This is my favorite sweets too. My husband bought it for 220yen each.
