Need to list so many other awesome snacks here - 11-10-2006, 02:28 PM

OMG! My girlfriend's family sends us stuff from kyoto almost every week.
Being a chef i have a natural love for food and am truly in heaven here.
even the stuff that most people would ask (did i see that on fear factor)
Oishi! I dont even know where to start in listing them all.
alot of you have tried some judging by the posts here.

Pocky is definately crack especially the Green tea (macha) taste
it is pronounced like Paw - Key.

one of my favorites is tako jerky marinated and dried octopus they sell it everywhere in japan and is like us buying beer nuts in the bars they sell it with your beer if you ask for it. it is real tangy and goes well with Kirin or sapporo. but not heineken LOL heineken is too bitter to match the vinegar.

I will post more as i figure out the actual names and descriptions.
