TOTALLY unexpected flavor and texture. I haven’t been this surprised by a snack in a while, but that’s one of the good things about getting international snacks where you can read nothing and have no idea what you’re eating. Turns out this is a tart plum flavor! They’re slightly sweet, but is not a sweet snack per se. It’s a blend of salted corn chip + a bit of sweetness + some tartness. The first thing that hit me was the tartness - which was unexpected and not pleasant at first, but the Asian preserved plum flavor definitely grew on me.
I actually loved the chip itself. it has great layers of crispy corn. Think thinner layers of #Bugles with air in between that result in a light and extremely pleasant crispy crunch. I would love these if they were plain salt, and turns out they come in a cheese flavor too! I’ll have to try them when I see them. Because while the plum did grow on me after a bit, I can’t see myself wanting it as a flavor again. - 📍Daiso, Irvine
