 Thanks for checking out this unboxing video and this is the new box that I kind of teased if people have been watching my BAM box and box of dread unboxings This is the new box I in teased and like I said on one of my videos It's food. I figured it'd be a lot of fun to do a food one and I'm really big into Japanese culture so I kind of was looking out there for good Japanese food boxes and one of There actually there are a lot of them at this point But most of them focus mainly on like candy and like some drinks and some do like you know The pre-package ramen stuff, but none of that really appeals to me too much. I'm not huge on candy or anything So I found this one Snaku which seems to focus more on Like baked goods. It looks like they have some candy type stuff every now and then but like rice crackers baked goods Stuff like that and they partner with Like small family-owned Japanese businesses that they get all their food from and one of the cool things is they have kind of like regional themes each month So like one month it'll be from like a certain area of Japan and then the next month it'll be from another area and it's kind of like what is popular there snack wise so That really drew me to this because it's not like just a bunch of candy stuff But this is called Snaku as you can see and it's um, you know, it's kind of nice. This is a small box This is not their regular box. This is the tasting box, which is only available in the United States They do their regular box available elsewhere too, but only tasting box available in the US So the tasting box only has a few items that are in the regular box I figured I'd just start with the tasting box just to see what I think about it And then go from there So we'll see but there was an issue with the US Postal Service I was supposed to have started in January, but they lost my box the US Postal Service did And then when I got this one I was a little confused because I mean I ripped it off for this video But the the label the shipping label said that it was sent in January Which was like the same date of when my January one was sent and it was lost So I was like, oh, maybe this is January, but then when I opened it up It had a card in it for February. So I'm like, well, this is February, I guess So I think it's February the title of this will tell you for sure, but I'll get into this I didn't I had already pre-cut it and just looked at this, but I didn't actually open it up So this is what it looks like on the inside of the box. It says tasting box very nicely wrapped right here And oh because of the issues with the shipping for January I was not charged for February except it's already charged for January. So the February one Chigeki who runs the company owns the company said that he would include some extra snacks Which I said you don't really need to do that because it wasn't your fault It was the US Postal Service's fault. So I don't want you to have to like drop cash on this basically So I don't know maybe he did put in extra stuff, but I said you don't need to so we'll see so anyway, so here's the card Let's put this aside. So here's the card Really nice artwork. So this is February 2018. I'm sorry if my hand shakes What's called a central tremor? So my hands always shake. It's just a condition Very nice artwork and then they kind of tell you what's in it They not only tell you what the featured snacks are for your for your particular box But they tell you at the bottom what the additional snacks would end up being if you got the larger size box Which is a regular box and then on the side it has like what's what are popular snacks in Japan? So So one of the things says that in Japan women buy chocolates for the men Obviously, this is kind of like a Valentine's Day theme. So it has that that information which I told my wife I thought was funny. I'm like, you know in Japan women buy chocolates for the men Not men for the women. She's like, are you saying I should buy you chocolates? And I was like no I'm just saying neither of us should do that. So you know and Then they just kind of like have the information about these. So just give you a quick view if you want to Focus on it. You can stop the video and read through the stuff So you see these would be the additional snacks who end up getting this is kind of just what's popular They're not included in any of the boxes and this is what we have But I'll kind of like read along as we go So that was just kind of set on there to make it look nice tissue paper There's a bunch of man. There's a bunch of stuff in here. He did put in extra So the first thing I'm gonna go ahead and do this might be a long video. So Yeah, there is extra stuff. So Dorya Yaki is the first thing that I have here see the packaging It's kind of like it looks like little pancakes with like a chocolate filling in the well It'll be better for me to take it out and show you that But it looks like little pancake cakes with a chocolate filling in the middle And it says that it's handmade small pancake like cakes. Okay wrapped around a sweet red bean filling So I know that red bean paste and red beans in general are a thing in Japan I don't think I've ever had red bean So, I don't know. Oh these legit feel like pancakes and look like pancakes. So there's like the little pancakes With the red bean in there. I'm sorry the lighting is not like the best. I tried to do what I can but I feel like so Fluffy Like soft and fluffy the pancakes tastes really good. They're like real bread-y Kind of I Mean they taste like what you would think of like kind of like a Sweet Fluffy pancake and the red bean the red means like a little bit sweet It almost comes comes off like a little bit like a fig almost but not Doesn't have that particular figgy character. It's got kind of like the consistency of a fig almost a little jelly like and then the Like a slight sweetness and and just like a little bit of like a tart But it's like a sugary fluffy Pancake-y thing Tastes pretty good That's nice. I don't really know of any like American snacks that I could really compare it to so basically I'm just gonna eat a little bit of a bunch of these or all of them and then save it because I'm gonna share with my wife because Sure, she wants to try it. That's good Doriaki is what that was so the next thing Okay, so these are pretz I guess from the Monday packaging Pretz or the bourbon flavored. It's like bourbon flavored pretzels Okay, I mean I'm down with that. I like bourbon flavored things. I don't like bourbon. I like bourbon flavored things It's just a thing of mine anyway, so this Must be the pretz. I don't know. I don't really see anything on here necessarily That it would be other than that So it just basically looks like two pretzels Kind of encased in whatever get that on my computer Yeah, I'm making a mess. Oh Okay, so the inside it's kind of like these little like wafers you see If people have ever had like pure lean Like those little like roll cookies with like usually some sort of like Flavored filling It's a lot like the outside of the pure lean cookies like very flaky very light It was like crackery Not a really nice crunch to it I'm just making a mess here Because that thing just falls apart when you bite into it It's really good though And it does have a little bit of like a pretzli Flavor to it like bready pretzli That's not what that is I don't even know what that is honestly That's so funny. I don't even think it's really on here. Maybe that's one of the excuse me One of the extra snacks he was gonna add So I don't even really know what to call it because I can't even read it, but it's that like bourbon LeMonde LeMonde says right there. You can read it Bourbon LeMonde or LeMonde. I'm sorry. I can't I don't have any Anything on the key that matches that so Now we have these things we have a few of them Ichigo milk candy popular since 1970 these candies have a multi-layer strawberry and milk filling They're pretty small Okay, so these look like kind of hard candies. I don't know if I'll be able to like The whole thing so I might just kind of put it in my mouth for a little bit and let's put it out But it's like these little hard candy type things It's a nice pink. I don't know if you can really see it with the lighting But it's like a nice light pink color. I can bite through it I'm not good on my teeth, but well Okay So it's definitely like that sugary hard candy flavor But there's a decent amount of strawberry to it And it's kind of like a more sweet like strawberry flavor not like a real strawberry And then you do get that milk coming through. There's like a really nice creaminess to it so it's basically like Candy form of strawberry milk if strawberry milk actually didn't taste like crap So that's actually I like that. That's tasty. I have a few of those Two more. Oh, no, there's three more. That was really nice. Very cool. Those are good like this So the next thing these are chocolate arar or arari these fun little Shapes I think these are like chocolate covered senpai or something like that or like Royce crackers So let's just pour a few of them out and you can see my hand they're just All over my computer, but I wonder if they're actually like Different flavors, but we'll find out So Just like one of each and put the rest back They feel and look like they're like yogurt Layden But we'll see so chocolate or are or are From a rice cracker store in Kyoto comes a snack ten years in the making There are chocolate covered mini rice crackers that have been featured on TV in Japan, apparently They come in pouches of bitter and sweet the bitter pouch includes matcha green tea Dark chocolate and white chocolate covered crackers. The sweet pouch contains strawberry milk chocolate and white chocolate covered crackers Okay, so I have another one. So this must be the Bitter pouch. Okay, so I'll open the bitter pouch at the same time and we'll try everything from both of these See like a green one from the bitter And one of each I'm gonna have a lot of food here This is the way this okay, so I'm gonna do one of the bitter ones This should be the dark chocolate from the bitter. Oh Okay, I like this immediately Mmm First of all, let me say I like rice crackers in the first place Adding dark chocolate on top of the rice crackers with that kind of like bitter kick at the end. I feel like really works well with the kind of Soy Finish that they typically put on rice crackers. So it's kind of like a saltiness to go with like the bitter chocolate. I Like that. I like that one quite a bit have a little bit of water in between these Okay, so this next one should be white chocolate So I'm not being on white chocolate White talk chocolate to me typically just tastes like sweet So that's basically what I get with this. It's just like a rice cracker with some sweetness Plus Why chocolate seems like extra waxy to me typically so that one's not really for me But if you like white chocolate, you might like that So I mainly just taste like the rice cracker with a little sweet. There should be the matcha green tea Don't really taste like tea real vegetal note on there almost a little See weedy Not sure. I really like dig of this one. I'm gonna start putting my water over here. It's easier It's a little seaweed type flavor to it. I don't think I really like that one. Honestly the dark chocolate. That was nice Okay, so now for the sweet pouch There's one strawberry. I don't taste much strawberry Okay, a little bit of hint On the very end as I continue to let it play around on my palate A little bit of strawberry to it and actually tastes like the strawberry fruit So that's okay, but for the most part it kind of tastes like white chocolate with just that little bit so This one should be also white chocolate Yeah, I don't know why that would be in both of them Don't taste any different Not big on that and then there's milk chocolate the dark chocolate and the other milk in this The milk chocolate is good. I like the dark chocolate a lot more of all those dark chocolate by far the best Not big on the matcha not big on the white chocolate the strawberries in All right next thing These are oh, these are the presses. I have the presses here and these are from Halloween as you can see from the packaging says down here Lovely Halloween and their presses. It says to open them long ways I don't know if I want to do that though Because maybe I can kind of reseal this So about the press says popular lightly seasoned baked pretzel sticks One of our favorite snacks. Okay. Well They might all be broken. I don't know. Oh, there we go So I got a full-size one. Yeah, then just like these really small pretzel sticks They feel like lighter though I'm doing laundry. It's really like light and buttery though. It's not like your typical US style pretzel. It's less of Saltiness to it and it's more like light and and more like butter driven than what you're used to And there's a little bit of saltiness to it That's good. It was very easy very good That one's nice to throw in there amongst all the sweet Because it gets to be like a sweet overload, honestly So the next thing Oh things says a Sherabaka no daishi I don't know which one this is Well, I have to see when I open it. I'll show you though. Mm-hmm. I don't know if there's anyone out there read that pop it open And maybe it's on here or maybe it's not This is another one. Let's not on here Okay So, no, it like looks like I Even know what this looks like it looks kind of like like a tightly packed like chocolate granola with like white chocolate or just like a Sugary glaze on it say Anyway, so it tastes like yeah Um It's got a little bit of like a vanilla sugar glaze to it but other than that it kind of tastes like People have you had Teddy Grahams? It tastes like chocolate Teddy Grahams from the United States, but with like a vanilla e sugar coating on top. It's good If you like Teddy Grahams chocolate Teddy Grahams, I do. I mean, it's nothing wrong with that That's how it's and it's not on here. So just letting you know. I must be just one of the extras they said That's good. I Like all this stuff Chris. I'll next Really interested in this one So this is I know it's on here strawberry Dishwap de quoi. I don't know. I don't know how to say it de quoi. I Think this is supposed to be like a strawberry flavored pastry It's a baked dessert cake made with layers of almond and hazelnut meringue and whipped strawberry buttercream Sounds good. It sounds like something that's really up my wife's alley. She likes these types of things. I have a feeling this is gonna end up being a mess Okay. Yeah, you can definitely oh you can definitely feel it the the two pieces on the end feel like very meringue like very like delicate and Not much weight to him kind of like fluffy Mmm. Oh, it's like super light very cakey. I Get a decent amount of strawberry in there Creamy a little bit of vanilla Mmm. I like It's so soft it almost melts when you're biting for it and a cream Inside there. I do get a little bit of that hazelnut Which is like a nice creaminess in the middle and That brings more strawberry up too. So it's like strawberries and cream That's really good Like that a lot. I think my wife's gonna really dig it So this one I don't think is in here Sorry, this one's not written on here either, but it's bourbon Rasukra chocolate I'm sorry the Foil is very reflective give this one a go Crumbs like everywhere that meringue thing with the crumbs It's insane. It's like a melbotos type thing. Yeah, it looks like a chocolate covered like melbotos She can see Yeah People have ever seen like the little melbotos they put in the Chex mix It's like that but like chocolate cover So I'm trying to minimize my crumbs Yeah, it's basically what it tastes like. I Don't know if I really taste any bourbon. I do taste dark chocolate And obviously as you can hear it's just really crunchy It was like a slight kind of grainy rye type flavor to the actual cracker Mm-hmm. That's good. It's nothing like amazing. I Mean I can do without in the future, but it's good and then I have this a glico caramel And first are glico-blico and it comes it's like two packages So I'll have to see what the difference is here, but they're you know, cellophane together Let me find the opening So going forward when I'm doing this tasting box, there's not gonna be nearly as much To the runtime just because there won't be this many treats included This is an anomaly because of the shipping issue But it's a cool way to do the first one Actually, I think this is kind of like a prize or something It's like a crackerjack type thing maybe or you get like some sort of like price thing Yeah, yeah legitimately like it's a little like toy That's funny It's and I have this little I can probably give this to my niece But it's a alligator it's like a little Plastic alligator Yeah, it's made out it's made out of wood Just a little wooden alligator and it looks like most likely if you switch hands If you get multiple of these things then you get multiple of these and they can kind of like click together Because of the way they're set up Something excuse me something fun for kids That's cool And then the actual Glico caramel now it doesn't have any sort of like text about the Glico caramel So I'll just have to tell you what it's like. Oh, so it's like legit like little individually wrapped caramels Got hearts on it for February. I love caramel by the way, so Now is this hard candy caramel? Or will this be easy to Chew yeah, and it's literally literally like caramels shaped like a heart soft enough It's got a fruitiness to it. I'm trying to figure out what so it actually has You get that kind of caramel you taste to it Rich creamy But then there's also like like a slight lemon in there and then a Little bit of a floral note to actually like some sort of like tea or flower, which sounds really weird But tastes good orange, it's not lemon there's orange There's a little bit of orange flavor in there, you know a little bit of like flowers Not in a bad way though. I know that sounds kind of weird, but Okay, and that's it actually Well, I mean when I say that's it. I mean like we're done. That was a lot of stuff So I don't think I'm gonna have to eat dinner now actually cuz I just had all that so of these What were my favorites? That's not my favorite this obviously the strawberry to schwa or however you say it is very delicious That's really good. I'm a big fan of that one That's I really do like these don't seem like all that impressive, but I really like to taste them They're really nice to parter from all the sweet stuff Tasty Big on that one The obviously the dark chocolate covered rice cracker. I really dig that Oh, yeah, these this LuMond the I got all this stuff The LuMond, you know the one that's bourbon coated. That's kind of like the pure lean cookies. That's really nice I like that quite a bit These are pretty good The Ichigo milk candy, it's like strawberry and milk and they are hard, but Soft in the middle and then this this little pancake red bean paste or dili of these I got to say that my favorites are definitely the strawberry thing with the meringue and The what they call the dorayaki Which is the little pancakes with the bean paste Those are my two favorite things not just from a flavor standpoint But from a textural standpoint, they're very different Texturally from what you would assume you're gonna end up getting with a lot of these snacks and that's just kind of nice Like I know it seems kind of weird to like take texture into the equation But you know very famous chefs always say oh with this dish you need some sort of interesting texture to it So it's a legitimate thing, but anyway, I like this. This is nice I'm gonna continue to go with this Like I said, we'll see about the tasting boxes The next one should be a lot less to do so the runtime will be a lot less But hopefully it's as good and we'll try some interesting different stuff. Thank you shigeki Thank you snack who really cool I appreciate all the extra stuff because it made for a much longer more interesting video and Tasty things. I like it at the moment. So the regular tasting box It'll be a better representation next time of what how much you actually get but I believe it's $15 and 75 cents And then include shipping and everything and like I said The tasting portions only available in the United States. The regular box is available elsewhere. So go ahead and check it out Just Google snack who spelled sna kku and check it out Anyway, thank you everyone for checking this out.
