Umaibo (うまい棒)

I first got to know about umaibo from a youtube video where I saw kids eating it. Then I saw it being sold in a snacks shop in Osaka and got excited. They only cost 10yen/stick. So I bought a few different flavours to try e.g. Corn Potage, Mentaiko, Takoyaki, Vegetable salad, chocolate and cheese.


I personally like umaibo.....yummy, cheap and convenient! Needless to say, I regret that I didn't buy more. I think it would be nice as souvenirs too for friends who likes japanese flavours.
