@Chuck – Yeah, I tried that orange one and I agree wasn’t very good.

@Neil – Yes, the matcha flavor is something that I think most people won’t like, but I do very much enjoy it.

@Luna – If they come out with either of those flavors, I will try my best to get my hands on it and review them and not throw up.

@Heather – Wait! There are cookies and cream Kit Kats? Why didn’t anybody let me know? I’m so all over those.

@fanta – Mmm…green tea ice cream.

@Brenda – I’ve been curious about those cherry blossom flavored Kit Kat. I’ve been thinking about picking some up.

@Fury – I’m not really into mochi (I know I’m a bad Japanese man), but those watermelon ones sound delightful. Have you heard about the eel flavored energy drink?

@betsy – If green tea is the devil’s favorite beverage, then I am THE DEVIL!!! Bwahaha. Bwahaha.

@alex lifeson – First off, it doesn’t really bother me but I should just let you know that the term “Japs” is a derogatory term. Secondly, you can actually get non-blurred versions of their porn. Yes, I actually do know that.

@Alisha – See comment above. Yes, they do have weird flavoring and will probably make many, many more.

@Jonathan – Right now, I have strawberry, regular tea, and one other flavor from Japan. But maybe I’ll pick up one of those apple flavored ones from J-List.

@Armauld – Heck, I would have sex with Kit Kats.

@Lex – Unfortunately I haven’t seen new green tea ginger ale. But I’m not a fan of ginger ale to begin with so I’m not too sure if I like it.

@NobleArc, The Lazy Canadian – I would suggest either eBay or jlist.com. They both have a variety of Kit Kats from Japan.

@Reprobate – Are you dressing up as an anatomically correct Incredible Hulk?

I was down in Osaka recently and bought Akafuku flavored KitKats. I’ve only seen this flavor in Osaka, which makes sense, since Akafuku mochi is apparently an Osaka thing. The KitKats taste just like the Akafuku mochi. Actual Akafuku mochi are absolutely fantastic – even the spousal unit liked them and he generally hates mochi anything with the fire of a thousand suns.

When I got back up north, the local suupa had watermelon (with a pinch of salt) flavored kit kats.

Trying weird Japanese food (especially candy) is a favorite pasttime at my work – the Akafuku KitKats were enjoyed but the Watermelon ones were the clear winner.

I didn’t get a chance to get pics of the interior wrapping or of the bars themselves before my coworkers lit into them, but here’s the outer packaging:

I’d send some but they wouldn’t survive the summer heat.

I could never figure out the sakura flavored Kit Kats. I mean, what is sakura supposed to taste like? (The answer, of course: Like a very watered-down version of those cherry dipped cones from Mr. Softee.)

“Black sugar” Kit Kats would be orgasmic.

BTW for those who don’t know, “jap” is akin to the n-word as a racial epithet. Please don’t use it.
