If you ever wanted to step back in time to a nostalgic corner shop where just 500 yen (US$4.85) gets you over a hundred different types of signature Japanese snacks and candies, this place is definitely for you.

The tasty rice crackers known as Kaki no Tane (literally “persimmon seeds”) have long been a favorite Japanese snack, but would you be willing to trying them in this bold new flavor?

We may be in the dead of winter here in Japan, but snack makers are already coming out with a taste of Spring.
Against the infamously difficult arcade games, sometimes you just can’t win, even when you just won.
Japan now has a new crazy potato chip flavour, and it tastes just like a Japanese Christmas cake!
Snacks don’t get much more decadent than fried ice cream, but it can be intimidating to make for inexperienced fryers. Luckily we found that using Japanese ice cream snacks coated in gelatinous rice known as mochi instead really simplified things without sacrificing any of the taste.
