Sour-plum flavoured Pretzel sticks n Seaweed

Tried a packet of plum salt-flavoured pretzel sticks which I bought from a 100yen shop.

It was actually quite appetizing.

You know those purplish-pink sliced pickles that you always get when you buy a Japanese bento? Imagine it dried and ground into fine powder, then sprinkled liberally over pretzel sticks and you get a wonderful crunchy snack that`s a bit salty with a tangy taste of sour plums. An interesting symphony that perks up your senses.



Another snack that I bought some time ago are thick slices of seaweed seasoned with plum juice. Sour but with a zesty feel to it. The seaweed has a chewy texture that creates a delicate balance with the sharp sourness of the plum juice. Interesting.



And no, people, I am not pregnant. I just happened to buy sour plum flavoured snacks.
