Doritos - Soy Sauce & Mayonaise Flavour

Origin - Japan
Rating - Good
You can smell the mayo kind of but to be honest I couldn't really taste much. These are very mild with a slight sweet and salty flavour. I noticed right away that these are different from the Doritos we are used to here. They seem to be whole grain and they are a little crunchier, even the shape is different. There not bad but I think I like ours better. As for the soy sauce and mayo flavour....needed more of a punch but not bad.

Chee-tos - Sukiyaki Flavoured

Origin - Japan
Rating - Awesome
Again, not what I expected. Very strange indeed! Smells like a bag of bacon but a little smokier. They taste somewhat like bacon Cpt. Crunch with a hint of soy sauce. The sweetness was something to get used too but I liked it. I expected them to have a cheese flavour thrown in the mix as they are Chee-tos (I think) but these are void of any cheese. Crazy but tasty...

Here's another experiment in ramune weirdness, try sucking blue freezie flavoured ginger ale through Grover's butthole. It's actually not super sweet and it's kinda refreshing in a butthole sort of way.

Hokkaido Genghis Khan Caramel - Grilled Lamb Flavour

Origin - Japan
Rating - Good
I gave these a "Good" rating but to be honest, I am disappointed. When I first laid eyes on these things I thought, "Oh shit, I've never heard of anything so gross! I've got to try them!!" (Yes, I wish for things to be gross!!). They're really not that bad, actually, they're pretty good. Think candy corn / Kraft caramels with just the slightest meat taste best described as....yes, grilled lamb. The texture is a little waxy maybe. Oh well, you can't loose them all!

Wife Cakes

Origin - China Rating - Good
These are Wife Cakes from China. I picked
them up from the International grocery store
in Windsor. Kind of a flakey pastry with
chewy goop inside. The goop is made from a number of mashed up
ingredients like melon, coconut, and wife. They are apparently
"durian" flavour, whatever that is.
Damn these wives are good! Reviewed by Sean G.

La-La - Takoyaki Fried Octopus Flavoured Snacks

Origin - Philippines
Rating - Awesome
Before trying these I kept saying to myself "C'mon Philippines, Don't do this to me again!". The picture of the octo-balls on the bag look promising but upon reading the ingredients and learning they are cassava/rice chips, I didn't really know what to expect. After opening I notice right away this challenge won't be that bad, they don't smell like satan's taint! They actually smell good, best described as sweet. They taste fantastic, dare I say one of the best chips ever? They taste slightly sweet but have a really mellow Japanese tempura & yakisoba kinda thing. They have a really nice savory flavour and the texture reminds me of less crunchy Munchos. Try these if you can find them, you won't be sorry!!

Kalamares - Pacific Squid Rings Squid Flavoured Snack

Origin - Philippines
Rating - Donkey Shit

Day 19 ~ 5th day without food:
I've been trapped underground in this secret lab for what seems like a century with nothing to eat for 5 days now. The groans of my stomach keep me awake at night. I've eaten the last of the copy paper and nothing remains but this case of "Kalamares Squid Rings". I keep telling myself "maybe they'll taste like Fun-yuns" but my good senses tell me otherwise. I break. I open a bag to discover the sharp scent of "animal feed mill", at least they don't have bits of black shit on them as the picture suggests. Why do they come with vinegar? An initial taste leads me to my original thought of "Fun-yuns (although stale)" but with a pungent extra that quickly goes from half-ass to holy shit. I keep telling myself "after a while the taste morphs to Limburger Cheese BUT THIS CAN'T BE!!!". I decide the vinegar is probably the way to go, maybe it'll cover up this terrible funk that lives in my mouth as some kind of Limburger parasite. No, dipping them does not help....it just adds vinegar to the flavour dumpster. How could I be so naive? I tossed the bag over my shoulder and chose starvation.

Choripdong - Sweet Corn Ice Bar

Origin - Korea
Rating - Boston Baked Beans
This product is what the "BBB" rating is all about. It's very strange. It looks like your standard ice cream bar but with whole kernels of corn sticking out all over. It wouldn't be so bad but this thing is filled with corn and it get's to be a bit much as I don't find it to be any sweeter than local corn. The ice cream tastes good but it's a little sour and obviously corn flavoured which is interesting but not what's usually in my comfort zone. Don't know quite how to feel about this one. If only I could mix booze with it somehow....

Rating- Boston Baked Beans
Corn is a very versatile food. This is what I kept telling myself in order to keep an open mind about this product. I was rewarded with a very tasty slightly corny frozen ice milk bar. Unfortunately, it was studded with tough unappetizing kernels of actual corn. This wasn't even regular frozen nibblets, the texture of these are just plain weird. And to make matters worse the core of the bar is solid corn. Ice cream=tasty. Corn=disgusting. Hence Boston baked beans. I almost gave it a good due to the bonus points it received for inspiring my new sassy catchphrase "sweet corn popsicles!".

Coconut Jelly - Lychee Flavour

Origin - Taiwan
Rating - Good

This Lychee Flavor Coconut Jelly from Taiwan. I picked this up at Wal-Mart in the International section. There is about ten individual packets in the bag. At first I thought this might be like the jelly you would spread on your toast. They are actually more like a jello shot without the alcohol. Kind of odd but tasty. Remember to "chew thoroughly before swallowing". Good!

This is a red potato flavoured Kit Kat from Japan that I picked up on Ebay. I've tried a bunch of Japanese Kit Kats now and they are always good.

Kit Kat - Wasabi Flavour

This is a wasabi flavoured Kit Kat from Japan. I picked
it up on Ebay and lemmie tell ya, it was worth every
fucking penny! First, this is a green chocolate bar, so
don't be scared when you unwrap it. The chocolate is white
instead of brown; not sure why, maybe white holds the
flavour better. The wasabi taste is very subtle, nothing
overpowering. There is a great, slight tongue and nasal
burn. Very slight, again nothing overpowering.
Fucking awesome! Reviewed by Sean G.

Wonderfarm White Fungus Bird's Nest Drink

Rating - Donkey Shit
This is Wonderfarm White Fungus Bird's Nest drink either
from Malaysia or Vietnam. I picked it up at the International
Grocery Store in Windsor. I did some research on this shit
because I was a little bit afraid. It contains actual bird's
nest and white mushroom pieces. In China, bird's nest is
considered a delicacy and there are these dudes that harvest
bird's nests from these remote caves. The nest is made from
the usual stuff and bird vomit. So, I drank it and it was tough
to get down because of the fungus pieces floating in it.  It
is very sweet and has a strong vanilla taste.  It was kind of
gross. Drink this at your own risk. Reviewed by Sean G.

Kimura - Curry Ramune Flavour

Origin - Japan
Rating - Good (on it's own)/Not so good (as a cocktail)
Who could possibly say no to this product. Soda and curry are just such a natural fit. At first I thought the marble thing unnecessary and overly complex. But then I realized it was from Japan. They're light years ahead of us so I'm going to blindly accept this as superior technology. The drink tastes like a slightly flat ginger ale with a little extra spice. It really wasn't bad. Now the Sailor Jugdish I was not so fond of. It tasted like a crappy flat left over cocktail from the night before that you only drown to avoid the DT's.

When we first discovered the last remaining bottle of Curry Ramune at the "Lucky Supermarket", we knew it must come home with us. After doing a bit of research, I found that "Ramune" is lemonade! This is carbonated, curry flavoured lemonade. I thought, "it just doesn't get any stranger than this", until i saw Kimura's website. They have a spicy version as well. HMM? Anyways, the bottle itself is odd. After you remove the lid, you have to push a marble down and it *POPS* and fills with bubbles. Fun! The product itself has the appearance of canola oil and smells like dirt-cheese. Not promising but what the fuck. I discovered it actually tastes really good! It's light and slightly fruity with a definite curry taste. It reminded me of a spicy ginger beer that was a little bit citrus. My next logical thought was, "LET'S ADD BOOZE TO IT!!" and I grabbed a bottle of Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum. Try this if at all possible, it's crazy!
