Here’s what’s inside:-

Umakara Tokyo Aburasoba

This Abura Soba is a new addition to the “Addictively Spicy” line from Maruchan. Abura (油), meaning oil, and soba (蕎麦), the classic Japanese buckwheat noodles, are seeing a trend of new flavors recently.  This Tokyo style version is seeing the rich taste of chicken and pork, which is unique to “Abura Soba”, combined with chili oil and chili peppers to create a perfect match with a crisp texture.

Sendai Spicy Miso Ramen

Thick round-edged and smooth noodles with a spicy miso soup using local miso from Sendai – absolutely delicious and very savoury with a little added spice.

Fujiya Fromage Salé

This pack contains 12 individually wrapped savoury cookies with a salty cheese flavour. Very moreish and they go well with a cold drink.

Dragon Potato Uma Chilli Flavor

Frito-Lay is back with another renewal: the Dragon Potato Uma Chilli Flavour. Every little twist of those chips will leave your lips covered with the fine onion and cheese flavoring powder. You’ll keep going back for more!

Puchi Potato Wasabi Flavour

Wasabi is of course hugely popular in Japan and these Wasabi flavoured mini crisps from Puchi really hit the spot with a sharp tang and kick of flavour.

Lotte Ume Ramune

Based on a Japanese flavoured soda, this seasonal classic is much loved across the country and has a refreshing and slightly floral/fruity flavour.

Yamato Aji Curry

Using the same manufacturing methods for over fifty years, this addictive spice flavour is blended at the Yamato factory only, and it is said that just one person knows how to blend these spices. No wonder it’s a secret as it’s so tasty!

Onigiri Senbei

This tasty rice cracker is fluffy, crunchy and is seasoned with fragrant soy sauce full of umami and dashi, and is sprinkled with yaki nori seaweed. Itadakimasu!
