Great ! Another Japanese-junk-food to add to the increasing cholestoral and heart disease inducing varieties in this country.

“Great ! Another Japanese-junk-food to add to the increasing cholestoral and heart disease inducing varieties in this country.”

I know, it’s great isn’t it? With the rest of the world working so hard to make food sad, healthy and tasteless Japan can always be trusted to come up with something horribly wonderful. By the way I always thought that it was cholesterol, or is this one of those words our countries spell differently?

Anything, even junk, is OK in moderation. These look good, kind of like 3-cheese Cheetos. They probably won't be around the next time I make it to Japan, but I'd like to try them.

They are OK. Cheesy taste on sticks of a potato-like stick. Lot of cheese snacks out these days. I can remember when it was hard to find cheese, other than processed cheese, in the supermarkets here. There is a lot more available now, thank God.
