Salt Ramen Caramel

I was given this a few weeks ago but didn’t get around until trying it now.  Salt ramen caramel? Bizarre! How on earth does that even work? It wasn’t really salty at all. It wasn’t really caramel-y either.  It wasn’t ramen-y either.  It was just… nothing, really.  Oh well.

Beer Caramel!

I was given this beer caramel the other day.  Beer caramel?  What?  THAT HAS TO BE AWESOME, I’m sure you’re thinking to yourself.  It does have a subtle beer flavour while still retaining the yummy of caramel. It’s pretty good!

Magic Spice Soup Curry Caramel

At work today, one of the teachers kept offering me all manner of odd foods.  First, some sort of senbei (rice cracker), which I’m not generally a fan of, but which I accepted anyway, because it would be impolite to do otherwise.

Then she’s like, “Oh! Do you want caramels? I have a bunch of random leftover ones.”

“Um, yes please!” I replied.  That’s more my taste, you see.

She rocks up with this. Soup curry flavoured caramel.  “It’s kind of spicy! Be careful!” she warned me. It was bizarre. It was sweet, like caramel, and textured like caramel, but it had a strong curry taste as well. IT CONFUSED MY HEAD AND MY MOUTH.

The package says that it will “wake up your brain cells”.  It certainly did that, but only through the power of WTF that it exercised on me.

Soft, delicious caramel chip cookies~

I saw these at Lion D’or, too, as I did with the cocoa/white chocolate ones.  They’re bleeding fantastic.  A really rich caramel taste in a soft, chewy, delicious cookie.  For less than 200yen for 10 cookies, this is really great.
