I appreciate the chazuke omiyage even more now since you mentioned how humbug it is to bring home. <br /><br />Kat, this one was expensive too! Thank you so much for sharing. I really enjoyed it. BTW, my son ate the other goodies, and he liked them too. jalnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16136981767715115943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282131801177338433.post-77010858289375492732017-01-05T20:10:55.744-10:002017-01-05T20:10:55.744-10:00Glad you liked it Jalna!

It was a bit takai, but it was so unusual and Japanesey that I had to get it and have my select few friends try it too.KitTKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03211907316832180769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282131801177338433.post-26939546425822032972017-01-05T08:10:13.531-10:002017-01-05T08:10:13.531-10:00OMG!!!!

Hahahahaha I have to remember not to buy that flavor!<br /><br />Seriously, that's one of the brands I look for too. I mean, since I can't read Japanese, I just have to go up and down the aisles of Japanese stores until I see the pouches. I think they are made of "fu". I get the chazuke and miso soup. I also love the oshiruko made with fu too. <br /><br />Even though these items are very light, since they're delicate, it's hard to buy a lot to bring home since they'll crush. And since they are higher end omiyage, the stores will pack them in a gift box that's really bulky, plus they charge about 300 yen more for the box. I usually go to Daiso and buy plastic boxes (tupperware) and pack like that. <br /><br />V<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282131801177338433.post-70305164964406158422017-01-05T07:00:55.645-10:002017-01-05T07:00:55.645-10:00Good luck with your search, Chet!!

I actually look for that or similar whenever I go, but having a definite location makes is much easier than trying to run into all the stores and hoping I'll find it! There are different companies that make different flavors, like kobu, ume, salmon, even balloon fish (yeech).<br />Cost almost $3 each, so kind of pricey. I think it's easier to find in autumn and winter because I remember trying to find it in May one year and no one had them, or at least all the stores I went to.<br />Thanks for the info! I'll be in Kyoto in October!<br />VAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3282131801177338433.post-54160497248847667682017-01-04T07:46:15.545-10:002017-01-04T07:46:15.545-10:00So cool!
