YBC Aerial Snacks

Snacks, snacks, by now, you know I love my snacks.  Even moreso if they aren't ones I grew up with.  Which leads me YBC Aerial.

YBC is another Japanese snack food manufacturer who makes products that are quite fun for me.  The product I tried, Aerial chips, seem much like Orion Turtle Chips, which I've reviewed before, and completely adore.  If you are unfamiliar, they are kinda like layered, or, 3D, chips. YBC makes Aerial chips in a zillion flavors like cod roe butter, peppersteak, tarako cream, teriyaki mayo, etc, along with more normal-ish to Americans variety like sour cream onion, salt, or butter.  I only tried one flavor, but I'd gladly try. more.

Corn Potage

"Enjoy munching on these four-layered corn snacks! Each piece tastes like corn potage soup."

"Each bite is packed with the rich, creamy flavor of sweet corn blended with a hint of buttery goodness, delivering an irresistible snacking experience."

Wow, ok, so these are exactly what they say they are.  They taste like corn soup, or creamed corn.  It is uncanny.  Soup, but ... in snack form.  Slightly savory, but fairly sweet, but not in a dessert way, just a sweet corn way.  Fascinating.

The form factor is much like other snacks of this style (e.g. Turtle Chips): lightly airy, layers that make for a really satisfying eating experience.  Very enjoyable.

I really did like these, but you have to be in the mood for this flavor, as it is so strong, and it turns out, I don't often crave a snack and corn soup at the same time.  ***+.
