Happy June Everyone :) I decided to try out a new subscription box called OmNomBox! A Japanese/Taiwanese/Korean Snack box. For $25 per month, you get a box full of snacks and treats right to your door, and the concept is just so cute! (*OMNOMNOMNOMNOM)*)
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
The cool thing about this month is that it came with a bonus kawaii item to celebrate their 6th box ^.^ I follow these guys on their facebook and they work very hard each month to put these boxes together with yummy OmNom worthy snacks and treats! Each month they promise a drink to go with everything :)
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Hey Song Sarsaparilla
Description: "You've never had root beer like this! Sarsaparilla is actually an old drink common in the old American West, but this delicious soda has taken off in many Asian countries! In Taiwan, Hey Song's version of it in particular is very popular."
This is a Chinese Root Beer, but I'm waiting to drink this :) I have to hide it though, my brother loves Root Beer flavored drinks more than I do! xD
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Chocolate Banana Pocky
Description: "This year Pocky introduced Chocolate Banana as a BRAND NEW FLAVOR, and you get to try it! The creme on top is banana flavored whereas the stick portion is a chocolate biscuit. A great pairing, and a delicious treat to eat anytime!"
Awww Pocky :3 It's like seeing an old friend again. I used to go to Cub with my friend Tayllor and we would get Pocky, Hello Panda, and Ramune because those were the only Japanese snacks available in murrica. This is such a unique flavor! When you first open the box you get a wif of banana and it tastes good! I found myself constantly reaching back to grab another.
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Matcha (Green Tea) Oreos
Description: "It was bound to happen. Japan loves
Oreos AND Matcha (green tea) flavor, so this snack
is a perfect match!"
Yummm!! As you can see these are puffy and soft Oreos that are stuffed with cream, in this case green tea flavored cream. In a blind taste test I'm not sure if I would say this is green tea, but its definitely unique flavored, and definitely delicious! I love me some soft cookies, especially Oreos :)
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
I-MEI Puff Snacks
Description: "This snack has a light puffy, fluffy, tasty
exterior filled with a flavorful filling. Each OmNomBox
has either Lemon or Chocolate."
I received chocolate :3 these definitely have a unique texture to them, very puffy and fluffy indeed. The inside tastes similar to Nutella, but its subtle. I personally think they're okay. Good for a light dessert ^.^
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Choco Snack
Description: "Japan loves corn, and it loves chocolate too. And they also have a knack for pairing flavors they love. Chocolate covered giant Cheetos? Weird. But also tasty, crunchy and chocolatey!"
I love Cheetos! And I love chocolate! :) So I think I'll love these. The thing about OmNomBox is that they always include 2 individual sized snacks so you can either have a double portion/serving or you can share with others ^.^
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Sanritsu Heike-Pie
Description: "This snack has layers of flaky pie crust, sweetened then topped with liquor-filled raisins! Great crunch and great flavor!"
This definitely looks like pie crust :) I think I would of liked it more if there was also like some kind of pie filling inside it, but I still haven't even tried it so I cant say that. Liquor soaked raisins? Fancayy.
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
WASABI vs CHILIBEE!!!
Description: "Spicy chips?! Yup! And Asia doesn't mess around when it comes to spice. Every OmNomBox will come with either Chilibee or Wasabee chips! We can't decide which is better! Did you enjoy yours? Show your support for #TeamWASABEE or #TeamCHILIBEE !"
Ummmm....#TEAMCHILIBEE!!! Yuuuummm. I was so excited to try these I opened it right when I saw them. Chips are my weakness...You can say I'm definitely more of a savory snack kind of gal. These are SPICY! But in a "I want more" kind of way. I hope OmNom continues to add chips and other savory snacks to the mix each month. I'm glad I received the Chilibee flavored ones because I'm not a fan of Wasabee. Therefore....CHILIBEE wins! In my book at least ;)
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Morinaga Hi-Chew
Description: "Unlike fruit chews in the USA, Hi-Chew
contains no artificial colors or flavors, and it super
delicious! Every box gets two random flavors!"
Well seeing as I can easily drive 10 minutes to a Target and get my hands on Hi-Chew quickly, I'm not super stoked to get these. Hmmm....well at least these are my 2 favorite flavors :) I personally like Hi-Chew over Starburst. Yummy flavors, juicy overflow in your mouth, whats not to love?
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Kameda Age Ichiban
Description: "These little balls are actually a type of rice cracker, a common Asian snack. A very tasty and VERY crunchy snack. "
I tried one of these and the flavor is very similar to a cereal of some sort. Like a slightly saltier version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch?? I'm still not quite sure but these little guys are VERY CRUNCHY just like it says. It's like the jawbreaker of the rice cracker family.
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Strawberry Koala's March
Description: "A sweet strawberry cream with a crunchy cookie shell. A fun little snack for everyone!"
So Koalas March is pretty popular. I'm more familiar with Hello Panda, which is basically the Panda equivalent. Whether it's Koalas or Pandas, they are absolutely delicious. When you open the bag you instantly get a wif of strawberry goodness, and they fill your mouth with yummy OmNomness. Plus the Koala's themselves are sooo kawaii!! One of them was even listening to an iPod xD Love it!
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Kuai Kuai Corn Soup Stick
Description: "This snack comes to us from Taiwan. This crunchy tube snack is EXTRA corn flavored, to try and mimic Taiwan's favorite soup: corn portage. Absolutely delicious!"
A giant tube-like stick that, again, tastes similar to a cereal thing rather than corn (although I do still taste corn in it). Either way I like it!! Like I said I'm a savory snack kind of gal :) So these kind of snacks are right up my alley!
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Champion Fried Cookie
Description: "Delicious fried cookie, a common Chinese snack. Each box contains either Almond or Peanut flavor."
I think I received the Almond flavor (not sure). I'm not super excited about this only because I prefer soft cookies over hard. Hard cookies in my opinion tend to be bland and hard to eat, but hey you never know until you try! We'll see how I like it when I crack into this guy.
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
Bonus Kawaii Item: Chopsticks!
Description: "To celebrate 6 months of OmNomBox we are excited to send you all a staple of Asian life, the humble chopsticks, with cute kawaii designs! What design did you get? Share #OmNomBox!"
Awwww thanks OmNom Team!! ^.^ They really are kawaii!! :) I use chopsticks from time to time, especially with noodle dishes. But I only own one pair, so I'm glad to have another pair! I think these were made for kid's school Bento Boxes because they'e a little smaller but they are still easy to handle and even have little grooves at the end to help hold things easier. Excited to use these soon! :D
₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪₪
My overall thoughts are AMAZEBALLS!! I'm blown away with this month :) All the cute touches and variety of snacks give this box a 10/10 for me. Such a cute concept! To me what sets OmNomBox apart from other Asian snack boxes is not only the price, drink added and such but also the dedication of the team. They work hard to fill and send these yummy boxes every month. I'm glad I'm subscribed to them ^.^
*This box was purchased by me with my own money, all opinions are true and you guys need to subscribe to this okie?*
