What kind of snacks are in the Dagashi Bites Box?

Here are some snacks in the Dagashi Bites Box!
Mini Caplico Ice Cream Cones
These little treats are super popular and for good reason: they’re really good! Imagine all the best flavors and textures of an ice cream cone, just without the need to keep it frozen. That’s the joy of a Mini Caplico Ice Cream Cone. These snacks are good for two to three bites, which makes them perfect for packed lunches, quick trips in the car, or anywhere you want some sweet vanilla ice cream (just without the mess). And as they come in vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry, there’s a flavor for everyone!
Ramune Mochi
Ah, ramune, the darling treat of every anime convention. Fizzy, sugary sweet, with a special taste all its own, ramune has charmed and delighted those with a sweet tooth for years. While popping that glass ball into the bottle is always half the fun, having some awesome ramune-flavored mochi treats is also pretty awesome, too. These treats are made from sweet and chewy mochi, just amped up with that classic ramune flavor. If you’re dreaming about ramune, but don’t want to deal with a big glass bottle, this is the snack to bring on your next day out.
Pokemon Gum
For every aspiring Pokémon Master in the world, these are the perfect snacks for those long days catching ‘em all! Coming in both green apple and cola flavors, these pieces of Pokémon-themed gum are exactly what every Pokémon fanatic needs to round off their lunch. Hey, every Pokémon Trainer needs something sweet to chew on while leveling up their ultimate Pokémon team, and this gum is just the ticket!
Wasabi Fish Jerky
Here’s a snack that might take some by surprise. At first glance, the snack looks like dried vegetables (an honest assumption, given the little wasabi mascot on the wrapper.) But once these are opened, well, it becomes very clear very quickly what this snack is made from. If you like wasabi and fish, this is a match made in heaven. If not, this is a prime example of why it’s important to read the info sheet that comes with the snack box (they are pretty good, actually.)
Umaibo Sticks
Is it Doraemon on the wrapper? Does it have meat in it? There are many questions that can be asked while eating an Umaibo snack, but the big answer to them all is, yes, they’re pretty yummy. These crunchy snacks are like big, condensed cheese poofs, just with meat flavoring on the outside. Feeling the crunch give way to a startlingly smooth consistency in your mouth can be surprising, but these snacks are still pretty yummy.
Why should you pick up the Dagashi Bites Box?
Just like a box of chocolates, the thrill of having a large variety of tastes and textures always outweighs the risk of not liking a particular flavor or two (not everyone likes coconut.) For Japanese snacks, especially for Western consumers, having such an eclectic assortment of tastes and textures is well worth trying out something a little odd or adventurous.
Fish is not often a flavor or ingredient in Western snacks, nor are wasabi or curry, so having access to so many different kinds of Japanese snacks can be very exciting and fun. And hey, you might even discover a new favorite snack! Have you had these snacks before? Please let us know! We’d love to hear from you!
