JAPAN CRATE PREMIUM OCTOBER 2015 |
This is the first time I've ever received a Japanese snack subscription box. It feels like Christmas already just to receive a box full of goodies! Japan Crate includes all kinds of snacks: savory ones like chips, sweet ones like candies and DIY snacks, sour gummy candies, crispy corn snacks, etc! For Premium box, they even include a Japanese drink.

Bireley's Orange Drink - a discontinued drink from 1920 California and
is still available in Japan made by Asahi drink manufacture |
My favorite snack is a jelly bean by Meiji. I used to have it a lot when I was young in Hong Kong, where Japanese snacks are widely available. After moving to the America, this is one of the few times that I get to try this candy for a long time. The texture of this candy is hardened only for the outer layer. Once you eat it, the outer layer will soften and blend with the rest of the candy. It is sweet, but not overly sweetened like many American candies. (American food doesn't go easy on sugar!)
When I first got my Japan Crate box, the outside of the box looks like this. They have an easy to read logo and straight forward branding for their packages.

Once it's opened, you will find the interior design pretty cool and kawaii. On the top, it tells you how to enjoy your snack box: OPEN -> SHARE -> ENJOY

Japan Crate Premium Box Inside |
On top of all those goodies, there's a monthly booklet, which explains what kind of snacks are included for this month's Japan Crate Premium box. Typically, I will be clueless about what I am eating because a lot of snack packages are written only in Japanese. With this handy booklet, I don't have any problem knowing what I am about to eat.

Each month, Japan Crate will select a different sets of snacks for their subscription box. Their snack box has 3 different sizes: mini, original, and premium. If you just want to try it out, a mini will be perfect! If you already know you will love it, give the Premium a shot, you will have enough to share with your friends too! :)
