i mean, seriously, vegetable flavor?

[ivy_chan]

I wish I could go to Japan just for the candy. Specifically, the fucked up variety of Kit Kats they have. WE don't have all these flavors of Kit Kats. They have pudding, mango pudding, red bean, green tea, soy sauce, chestnut, baked sweet potato, and others. I stare at them in disbelief and awe.

I mean, look at these. I am so tempted.

Spicy Chili Pepper! I am so tempted with that one......

Dammit, why do they get the neat flavors and we get boring ol' chocolate?

[ivy_chan]

I HAVE NO IDEA. Maybe they think we have boring palates. And there is something to that rumor, I think, despite us being the wacky experimental country. But I'm sure kids would be all over it. We have sold BERTIE BOTTS BEANS. Vomit flavored jelly beans. We can stand some awesome Kit Kats!

[lvsinsanity]

AGREED!

I know, right? Maybe if stuff like this did flood in from Japan, obesity would go right off the charts. o.o

TOPHGODDAMMIT, I WANT MORE FLAVORS IN MY KIT KAT BARS. I MIGHT BUY THEM MORE OFTEN, HOLY SHIT. I also want more Pocky flavors! Strawberry and Chocolate get BORING after a while! *whines* *complains*

[ivy_chan]

I KNOW OMG. I don't even like regular Kit Kats anymore, but I am sooo willing to try these.

[caterfree10]

I very rarely buy KitKats, but damn if I wouldn't buy more if these were available. *flails*

[ivy_chan]

I'd go on long Kit Kat SPREES if I could get yuzu flavor at stores.

It's not really vegetable juice... that's engrish for FRUIT juice. XDD

Still, pretty gross/interesting/curious... >_>

[ivy_chan]

Japanese buddy on the candy exchange says it IS vegetable flavor. You can see carrots on the wrapper.

It's based off a popular vegetable juice.

[yamiloo]

It's probably based off that apple-carrot-orange blend that's so popular with European moms:

[ivy_chan]

I know we have carrot juice, and I'm almost positive it's used in V8 Splash, but I don't think it's openly marketed that way. I'd like to try apple carrot, my dad makes a cold fruit dessert with sweetened carrots, but I'm also wondering about the choice to make it a Kit Kat bar. XD

When I was in England, the kit kats were way better than they are over here.

WTF IS THIS

[ivy_chan]

WHAT IS THIS MADNESS

I think we went wrong when people somehow allowed Hershey and other companies to call something chocolate despite the lack of cocoa solids. Consequently, the quality of American Hershey candy is low.
