The first is “Hokkaido Seafood Senbei: Koreni Maitta!”, a cracker with a crunchy texture and dried shrimp flavor!

A soft shrimp fragrance greets you as you open the bag. The rice crackers are crispy and light—with just the right amount of salt—and the seafood flavor fills the mouth when you bite into them. These rice crackers are, of course, made from 100% Japan-grown rice. The slightly sweet and salty dried shrimp has a fun, crunchy texture, guaranteeing an addictive deep-fried rice cracker treat.

The product’s name comes from the fact that during their development, these crackers tasted so good the chefs couldn't stop eating them, saying, “kono oishisani maitta” (meaning “this is too delicious and irresistible”). Now on sale exclusively at Narita Airport, the box with several pouches makes for the perfect souvenir!
