Best Japanese snack box I've had
I've bought a few different dagashi/okashi boxes before, and this is the best one so far.Mine came with two of the Popin Cookin style boxes, two kit-kats, and a few treats that are familiar to these Japanese snack boxes, plus a lot I had never seen before. You get a fantastic variety, with both sweet and savoury. A lot of flavours will be kind of weird, particularly the savoury ones, but even more will be delicious and enjoyable.Some highlights were:-Almond flavoured chewing gum-Melty powdery sweets that almost feel fuzzy in your mouth-The "lipstick lollipop candy" that totally looks like a tampon-a melon flavoured biscuit-SWEETS THAT WERE ALSO STAMPS??? You lick it and then stamp it down. Edible in name only, but extremely fun. I stamped them on the delivery slip. I now have a sticky red pumpkin on my delivery slip. I loved it. 10/10.-a lightly fish flavoured jerky type thing? I think it's nori/seaweed-a completely unidentifiable rice??? thing??? I have no idea. It came in a fun triangle packet. Some were fishy, some were a little spicy, and some just had herbs on them.It does not come with a guide, you will have to either jump into the depths of the unknown or get busy translating it for yourself. A pro-tip, the Google Translate app allows you to take pictures and it'll use OCR to help you. I found that I had to use the handwriting function on that as well. Honestly, it's pretty fun not knowing.It does take a while to arrive. I ordered mine on the 13th of March, and it arrived on the 4th of April. Just remember that it's travelling a long way, and is definitely worth the wait. I will definitely be looking to this specific product next time I fancy some Japanese snacks, as this was the best one.

Excellent Variety!
I have ordered a number of Japanese candy boxes over time from various sources, and this is BY FAR the best one I've purchased!Boxes I've ordered in the past tend to have a lot of chewing gum in them as well as duplicate products, meaning there's not much variety, certainly not enough to experience the wonders of Japanese candy. This box was full to the brim with various sweets, such as mini marshmallows, corn snacks, biscuits, gummies, and some fish-based snacks (fish may not for everyone, but I personally like them and they're certainly worth a try!)The only thing that I think could improve the box is a list of contents, so that you know what you're eating if you're not too familiar with Japanese candy.I highly recommend this box! I will be ordering another one in the future.

Fun and tasty!
I've had two of these now and will probably order another! They have a good variety of sweet and savoury treats, and each box is slightly different so if you order a couple you won't get a bunch of the same stuff.Fairly high price if you consider how cheap these items would probably be in Japan, but worth it for the experience.I will say that there's no sheet or booklet telling you what you're getting, so if you're not into the idea of eating mystery food these may not be for you! My housemate got quite a shock from an unexpected wasabi snack, and I was shook by a beef tongue Umaibo, but I think that's part of the fun!

Didn’t receive the Japanese flavour Kit Kat 😑😭
I’d say overall it was nice I received the right amount of items(I counted them all out😂) there was a few things I didn’t like which is to be expected when buying food which has tastes different from what you’re used to I had things like thin fish snacks/meat sticks and cheese sticks(don’t like cheese) I had 12 umaibō 11 of which were different flavours they are like a big corn crisp in the shape of a tube with some very interesting flavours I had a few rice snacks which I didn’t mind as they were nice I didn’t however receive a Japanese flavoured Kit Kat as it was in the description so was annoyed about that overall i’d say it’s good thing to buy as a present or just to try new snacks but my box was more savoury than sweet so if you prefer sweet I would suggest looking elsewhere 👍🏻👌🏻

Small quantity
The quality is good but the quantity is bad. I was hoping this will last me a week, but it lasted only a day. More than half of the items are just pea size sweets that count as an item, thus the "52" number in the product title. Other half are just small bars like kit kat. I would say this box is worth max £11.99.
