Japanese people love their snacks and especially chips. There are a plethora of different brands that offer a huge selection of ingredients and tastes. Calbee is the Japanese leader in the market of chisps and snacks of all types. Indeed, in 2016, in Japan, 131,211 tons of chips were sold. This market is very fruitful in the archipelago since it weighed about 1.35 billion euros (162.8 billion yen).

We found in our small supermarket : Calbee potato chips with only ingredients from Japan: potatoes from Hokkaido and wasabi from Kanto area. I was very excited to taste these chips because I really like wasabi. I like when the taste of wasabi goes up to my nose. But at the tasting, we were a little disappointed. Calbee wasabi potato chips do not have the expected taste. Wasabi is not very pronounced, it is barely noticeable. Yet wasabi from the region in the south of Tokyo is known for its taste.

Finally, I'm not sure to recommend wasabi-flavored food products. The majority of those we tasted, the wasabi is barely noticeable and even though snacks are not very expensive in Japan, are they worth it....
