Are you cool enough ?

Introducing the revolutionary ’stick-snack’- cool Fran. The one that keeps you cool after munching. how cool is that. bah

I was quite attracted to this snack from Meiji. The packaging looks quite sophisticated and cool. Priced at $3.85, it’s not cool at all. There’s only 3 packets of the cool frans in the box. Quite a rip off. :(

Well, there’s 2 layers. the yellow one would be lemon flavoured. However, the white one, I’m not really sure. It’s something lemony, I was thinking maybe it could be lime, or perhaps mint or something. But definitely not white chocolate. Any japanese wanna help me out ;)

Surprisingly, it really gave a cool feeling after eating it. Of course not your WHOLE BODY!!!! but just in your mouth, between your teeth. It’s refreshing and cooling. But the biscuit-stick was abit bitter. If it wasn’t so chocolaty, then maybe it would be better.

Score : 3/5 (too expensive, and didnt quite like the biscuit-stick )

Anybody wanna help me translate that ? hehe

More snacks:

Black Sesame Pocky
Green Tea Waffle

Any recommendations of Japanese / Korean Snacks ?? Please let me know ya ? ;)

From what I can read on the box:

1) crunchy cocoa biscuit
2) crisp whipped white (chocolate)
3) lemon chocolate with Xylitol

=)

I love Japanese snacks - one which I love is Meiji’s Coffeebeat. It’s essentially coffee flavoured M&M’s shaped like a coffee bean. addictive stuff esp if you love coffee and choc.
