The recent rise in popularity of all these snack boxes by mail have given people alternatives in their snack game and with plenty of different services out there, there's something for everyone. For people like me who are into things from Japan, there's plenty of different services I can try out to satisfy my cravings for far east snacks. One of these services that I recently got to try is the J-List Snack Box DX from J-List and I made an unboxing video above just to check it out..
The J-List Snack Box DX for October 2017 comes with 16 different snacks (including Melon Pan) weighing it at over 2 pounds and it's a big box alright. It's got some snacks that will have familiar flavors for westerners but just in a different and unfamiliar packaging. There are some snacks that will be new to westerners but nothing that would be truly out there that would cause some upset stomachs.
The most interesting item in the box that's quintessentially embodies the "weird Japanese thing" is the Garlic Shrimp Doritos. It's not as weird as it sounds, coming from someone who grew up on asian snacks that often incorporate seafood flavors. It wasn't fishy smelling or weird tasting and the garlic flavor that gave it a bit of a kick.
Check out the video above for the unboxing and a few of my thoughts on the contents.
