A great present filled with treats
Purchased this as a present for my teen son. He loves Japanese and Korean foods, culture, etc. He loved this. It was a true treat. There was a great variety of snacks in there. He did mention that it would be nice if there was a sheet showing and describing what the foods were. Some of them didn't have pictures and it was a guess as to what exactly he was eating. But that was kind of fun too.

Great snacks and great experience!
The box was really great. All kinds of different snacks inside that I enjoyed. They practically packed the box to the brim. I receive them even earlier than expected too! They said they'd arrive by sunday but I had gotten them saturday!As with trying any new food there's bound to be some items that you don't like, but I had very few of those experiences in the box. I only wish that there were more savory items in the box I received. Most of the items I got were sweets so I got a little burnt out on all the sweet stuff.Either way though this box is great! I would definitely recommend trying this out. Just know that if you're in az your items might melt a little bit lol

A little disappointed
The snacks inside were good, I just didn't appreciate getting 9 duplicate items out of the 20. Almost all of the labels on the items were in English and I was really hoping to receive items with Japanese labeling. One of my items did come crushed as well. This could have been much better.

Such a fun treat.
I ordered this to play a blind taste test game with my boyfriend. This is a really interesting gift/care package idea for people who love to try new things. My box included snacks from Japan, Taiwan and Korea. It does a great job of including snacks that are both sweet and savory, and it had things that are popular in Asia but relatively hard to find where I live. My only criticisms would be the instant noodles that were included (I am more interested in packaged snack foods as opposed to having to cook noodles - but I'm sure it will still be fun to try them), and the nutritional information page (only had about half of the items in my box listed, so I had to do some digging to find out what some of the other items were). All in all I'm very pleased with it. Here is a list of the items I received:Pineapple Cake, Taro Cream Wafers, Little Prince Snack Noodles, Lychee Jelly Snack, White Puff Pastry, Chocolate Hello Panda, Calbee Shrimp Chips, Original Pretz, Cream Collon, Ramune Gummy Candy, Matcha Kit Kat (SO excited to try this), Strawberry Hi Chew, Chocolate Pejoy, Shin Ramyun, Choco Pie, Happy Promise Custard, Seasoned Seaweed, Choco Heim, White Chocolate Heim, and a Glico Cream Biscuit. Not bad - we shall see what my guy thinks of these!

Fun and interesting.
This box is filled with mostly Asian candy choices, which, so far, have been...different. Good. But different.There is also a noodle cup and some seaweed, which I'm not sure if it falls into the candy category, and I'm very hesitant to try it, not being from a coastal community. But I'm sure I will work up the courage. Overall, this box is fun to try and interesting to see what other countries eat everyday. I would recommend this box if you were looking to broaden your tastebud's horizon on a shoestring budget.

Great but won't buy again.
Came as expected with everything shown. Was super excited to get a nice variety, which I did for the most part. Although it was a nice variety, the actual snacks were cheap and not all that tasty tbh. Aside from maybe 3-4 snacks the whole box was cheap dollar store brand type snacks. Won't be buying again. I'll be better off going to the store. This is a rip off.

Umaibo are like really big Chee-tos in different flavors
I ordered an Asian snack box a couple months ago and was pleasantly surprised by what was inside. That box introduced me to the world of Umaibo. Umaibo are like really big Chee-tos in different flavors. In addition to the Umaibo I got a lot of snacks that were both good and not so good. Dried meat snacks that were just not for me.I ordered this box on a whim (because it was Prime) and am really happy with it. Had the Shrimp chips, which were not new to me, and a couple other things. The other things were mainly chocolates and they were all really good. There are no Umaibo in these boxes but that is a good thing. I was pleasantly surprised to see Green Tea Kit-Kats.My one hope is if I order these again that I will see a little variety. Not too much; maybe a spin on a flavor that was in the box but I will not be disappointed with an identical box either

Overpriced and underwhelming
I had no problems with the products themselves but it seems as if the photos of the size of the box and the contents are intentionally misleading. A large part of the package was taken up by a ramen cup that was already open and spilling out into the box so I had to throw it away right off the bat. If you feel like spending twenty six dollars on eight dollars worth of single serving snacks you can't even share with people go right ahead. It's my bad for just seeing the high rating and not looking to see that most of them got a price discount or the product free for their "unbiased" review. Don't make the same mistake, drive to Walmart and save yourself time and money.
