Kasugai Grape Gummy Candy

First off I apologize for the giant picture of the product. I hope at the very least it grabbed your attention. Secondly, in case you didn’t notice, this isn’t a drink. Thirdly, these are actually delicious.

Now I’m a big fan of grapes, so I know only too well the perils of grape flavoured things. Mainly that they’re made by people who have never even seen a grape let alone tasted one. As such I had reservations about this, but I was reassured by what I’m going to pretend is like a “grape charge bar” on the front of this product (like a video game). This is however not the best thing on the front, the best thing is the bit of accidental poetry which I will now post in full, simply to put our normal Western advertising to shame.

“Enjoy the softness of gentle breeze
that sweeps through the vineyard
spread vast on the hill in each soft
and juicy Kasugai Grape Gummy Candy”

After appreciating this piece of fine literature I decided it was finally time to get to the real test of any food product: how much of it I can eat at once how it tastes. As such I opened the bag and was overcome by what I can only describe as the gentle breeze that sweeps through the vineyard. This lead me into a false sense of security, making me think I could just eat them straight away, unfortunately I discovered that each one was individually wrapped and disguised as hotel soap. However unlike most individually wrapped things, I can actually open these without getting the stuff everywhere and having to use my teeth like an idiot. Anyways…

So I get it open and they’re shaped like tiny dark purple hearts for some reason. I don’t really understand why, maybe if I could read Japanese I’d understand. Probably not. Also these are the squishiest things I have ever put in my mouth. And I’ve put a lot of squishy things in my mouth if you know what I mean (if you do, let me know because I have no clue what I mean). So after some rigorous mastication you finally get hit by the flavour which actually does taste grapey. This makes it part of a rare group of gummy candies that don’t taste like shit.

All in all I’m actually quite a big fan of them and might start eating them regularly in order to look multicultural as fuck without having to eat pocky.

A Minecraft themed wedding! What! :’)

I’m torn between thinking this is adorable / sweet / unique and thinking this is absolutely bizarre in a not entirely good way
