those of you have have been in chapel hill comics lately (or who read their blog) already know that they now stock japanese snack food treat things. i was thrilled at the wide selection when i went to pick up some comics and decided to try these three things.

the ice cream things seriously taste just like ice cream, if ice cream was dry. it's like magic. i'm not really into the strawberry flavor (i don't like strawberry ice cream either), but the vanilla and chocolate are awesome. weird, but awesome.

the pucca goldfishy things are YUMMMMMY. they're pretezely and chocolatey and basically my ideal snack food.

the koala things are similar to the goldfish, but instead of having a pretzely exterior, they have a somewhat bland cookie. however, those cookies are decorated with a variety of cute koala pictures (just like on the box) which does award them bonus points. my favorite is the koala dressed like a pharoah. i love cute food! these also come with a strawberry filling, but i just got the chocolate b/c i'm sort of a purist.

verdict: the fishies win, but all are edible!

I love your review!

I've had the koalas before - not great, not bad. I've gotten much japanese junk food at the Silver Wok.

haha, thanks!

the chocolate-filled fish were waaaay better than the koalas.

i have never been to the silver wok. i like that the comic book store sells junk food now, since i'm there all the time anyway and don't have to go out of my way for japanese chocolatey goodness. :)
