Candied Buddha's hand

Before researching about the Buddha's hand fruit, I used to think it was a genetically modified fruit because of its weird shape but it turns out it is natrually like that.
Anyway tried the Buddha's hand candy which basically tastes like fruit peel with liquorice taste.


EDO pitted prunes

The labelling for these pitted prunes were interesting because it states no saccharin! Usually it is no sugar!

Anyway the taste of it was slightly sour and savoury which was weird.
But since this is an Asian brand it does not taste like the usual Western prunes I have come across because they do not taste savoury.

There were two prunes per pack!



Chinese coconut sweets

I hardly eat Chinese sweets but I just realised they have changed the sweet wrappers, they used to be wrapped in brightly coloured waxy paper wrappers.

Although coconut is white, the colour of these coconut flavoured sweets are brown.

Indonesian garlic peanut crunchies

Tried these coated peanuts which come convenient packed in small packs.
The peanuts inside are slightly smaller than the usual peanuts the coating on the outside is thicker which is really nice because it tastes really garlicky.
