[Misc.] Umaibo x PAD collab, with new flavor!
The cheap and tasty snack, Umaibo, collaborates with PAD on snacks again!
As you all may recall, Umaibo is a corn snack that you can buy cheaply in Japan. They have a lot of interesting flavors (such as takoyaki and natto), and a while back we saw the Dragon flavor made for PAD.
This time the flavor is a premium “Dragon Bisque” flavor for PAD 8th anniversary. I wonder how it’ll taste like? The art this time features Umaemon and Umami-chan as… Toragon!
The snack will be available in Japan some time this year, 10 of them for 200 yen (yes it’s as cheap as ever).
There’s also a campaign going on (Japan only, until 5/27), where you follow the official account and retweet this tweet to get Umaibo snacks, if you’re lucky.
Unrelated note: I’d like this in game… lol.
I’m still working my way through the Dragon flavor pack I bought at an import store…
How is the flavor? I didn’t see it around so I gave up finding it, lol
It’s okay… It does taste like ginger ale, but I’m more of a fan of savory flavors. I have trouble eating more than 1 at a time because the powder on the stick is fizzy like real ginger ale and that feels weird. I was surprised to find it at all, the store was missing a lot of the standard Umaibo flavors but had this one for some reason.
