Crunchy Sesame Seaweed Snack

While in Singapore - we picked up a bag of Crunchy Sesame Seaweed Snack from a local grocery store. The snack is imported from Japan and I thought it was pretty tasty. It's made from seaweed, sugar, sesame seeds and mirin.


I found it to be slightly sweet and the tiniest bit sticky - not enough to really stick to your teeth. At first, you get the salty/fishy taste of the seaweed. Subsequent tastes of the snack allow the flavor of the sesame and mirin to come thru. It's a pretty substantial crunch vs. strips of nori snacks. The salesperson at the store encouraged us to buy the snack because seaweed is supposed to be good for the skin and keeps your hair from turning grey!
