Pea Sticks and More
No, I didn’t mean “pee sticks.” I’m not talking about pregnancy tests like most hip people would think after Juno’s rampant success. I’m talking about actual peas, and sticks made from them. For snacking purposes. Apparently, these Pea Flavored Pretz are Glico’s latest “limited time flavor” offering for summer. They were honestly surprisingly tasty. On a more disturbing note, I also found Tohato’s most recent attempt at novelty flavors.
The coffee float corn snacks were surprisingly good, though I still had a few momentary jitters about it as I remembered what I was eating. Weird. But tasty. Doable, even.
The cream soda snacks were much weirder. They had a coating that made them slightly fizzle on your tongue (think pop rocks or dipsticks) and a tartness to them, too. It was definitely a novelty thing, but hey - I’d have regretted not trying it. Having said that, I’d regret eating it again too. Ha ha.

I’d also like to point out that Pea Flavored Pretz’s companion Beer Pretz is NOT Beer FLAVORED Pretz. Even though it says Spicy Chicken on the box the NAME is Beer Pretz so by the usual Japan snack logic they should taste like beer not spicy chicken, dammit.
