Calbee Grill-A-Corn Lobster Supreme soup flavour


















I hardly ever buy Chinese snacks because they all taste the same, the main taste is Sweet, sweet and sweet!
I was surprised that Calbee came up with this lobster supreme soup flavour.
Although the idea sounded good, it had no lobster taste.
The taste was just sweet corn flavoured Niknaks.

From my experience, the Chinese are good at coming up with all these wonderful flavours but the taste does not match up to it.
The British pot noodles and crisps have a better and more realistic flavour.
Also the packaging is rubbish, they have used a really tough plastic that you cant open it like a normal pack of crisps and you need to rip it open.

Japanese smoked oysters - snacks

I am not a fan of smoked food, but because they were oysters I bought a packet.
It is not often oysters are served as packaged snacks, the ones I have seen before are dried oysters, fresh oysters or cooked oysters.

























 
The packet was interesting, there were two places on the packet where you can open it.



 
























 
Anyway, when I tore open the packet, the smell of oyster was strong, it smelt of the dried oysters with a slight smoked aroma.
The texture of the oysters were soft and mushy and tasted similar to the cooked dried oysters in Chinese cooking.



 




















 

Overall, they were quite nice and there are six oysters in a pack.
The next day I did not get diarrhea, so theyre quite safe to eat!
I have previously tried packaged snacks similar to these such as kidneys and gizzards made from China which gave me diarhea!!
