Umaibo literally translates as “tasty stick” in Japanese and is one of the most popular Japanese dagashi (junk food snacks). It is a cylinder-shaped puffed corn snack and comes in different flavors. The Umaibo Corn Pottage is regarded as one of the most popular flavors among all Umaibos.
Umaibo is noted for its crispy and very light texture with a smooth, distinctive melt feeling. Your mouth will be filled up with a taste of rich and delicious corn potage soup in every bite.
Each corn stick is packed in an aluminum film package which is easy to carry and is resistant to humidity.
Trivia: Umaimon, the mascot of Umaibo, has similarity with the globally recognized Doraemon in terms of its name and appearance, but both are of course different each other. But it may sound like a trick of fortune that Umaibo was invented in 1979, which is the same year the second series of Doraemon TV anime got broadcasted!

- IIsabelleVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1/19/22Good size for a snack.
The flavor is great and it's enough if you want a small snack and don't want too much at a time. It'd be interesting to have bags with more than one flavors in them for more variety.
