Hanami prawn crackers.



These things..what do I say about these. I had never been a fan of shrimp or prawn, something about the taste and texture I just cant deal with. But I had bought these for my step dad who likes both those things, and being who I am I decided to try them.

They had been sitting unopened for a couple weeks on the counter near the breadbox. I wasnt going to open them they werent mine, so I had to wait. When I went down to get something to eat a little while ago I noticed they were open so I took one and ate it.

And I'd have to say they werent all that bad. They had a definate shrimp taste but it was subdued by this powder that tasted alot like what was put on the rice crackers I enjoy. then once the powder was gone, the shrimp taste came back.

and that was when I proceeded to grab my glass of cola and chug it.

Dont get me wrong- its not as though they didnt taste good. I just dont like shrimp. They were actually better than I thought they'd be. And I hope they get eaten.

They have a definate taste- and for those who like shrimp this would probably be an awesome snack. But I dont like Shrimp, so I think I'll pass.

Bao nhi coconut cookies



These are coconut cookies, I bought them for my mom because she likes coconut- I on the other hand am not a huge fan. I mean they arent as bad as almonds- but they arent my favorite. But either way for the sake of this blog I decided to try them.

And they did surprise me.

when I pulled one out it was the shape of a hersheys kiss- except one covered in breadcrumbs...So- deciding to just leap into this whole thing I popped the entire thing into my mouth- It was crunchy- I like crunchy- then we hit the coconut part- and I was close to spitting it out- too much coconut!

augh-

It was like someone basically took coconut either shavings or just a piece of it- got it wet then covered it in panko bread crumbs-

the crumbs I liked- the coconut?

not so much.

but hey- dont let that discourage you- if you like coconut this would be an excellent treat for you- just... not for me.

I didnt like them myself- but Im positive a coconut lover will Adore them.

Onion crackers

Okay so lets start off first with my thoughts on how some snacks Taste- i get most of these from the Thai store "Lao trading company-" and since I like to try new things I usually have the owner give me suggestions- and here's an example of one of what he said I should try. so here we go!~
-------------------------------------------------------------
These are Onion crackers- they didnt really have a taste- sort of like a blander version of sour cream and onion chips- but totally awesome snacks to add to a lunchbox or if you have the munchies but dont really want anything big- also if you like sour cream and onion chips you'll probably like these.

needs more flavor- but still good to eat.

So something like that is how this blog will work- we'll add other foods from other places when we try them, and more tasters may join the blog too! So if you're interested- just hit that follow button over there and sit back and enjoy the show~!
Till next time party people!

Waffle cone things (I dont know what they are =3)

------------------------------------------------


These may look like delicious waffle cones- but I assure you they are not. they dont taste like waffle cones. These were also in an unmarked bag and made by the owners mother. They're very good but they have a strange taste. sort of a waffley syrupy kind of taste with something else thrown in there that sort of throws the taste off. but in a good way. Im not really sure how to explain these- but despite this they are still pretty good.

They're interestingly good- but the rice cake things are better =3 I'll still buy these though and eat them because I like them.

Rice cakes

--------------------------------------------------------------


Im not entirely sure what these are to tell you the truth- they came in an unmarked bag (besides the price) and were apparently made by the owner of the stores mother. They seem like they're rice krispies (or fried rice?) with a type of caramel over them. and they are DELICIOUS. I love munching on these and Im probably gonna make sure I always have some somehow. Thats how good they are. The Rice itself seems to have some sugar on it or something so even parts without the caramel taste good- but when you find some of the topping it becomes heaven in your mouth- its hard to explain it but it makes me wonder how delicious it would be with milk...as though it were cereal. I may have to try it. If I do I will let you know how it turns out.
