Purple Sweet Potato Sticks

Purple Sweet Potato Sticks
(Japan Crate: November 2015)

[Japan Crate description: Here's a flavor that's just as seasonal as Pumpkin Pie, but a little less common. Purple sweet potatoes are a fall/winter treat in Japan. These light, crispy sticks taste perfectly like a sweet potato!]


Melissa Says:

These were really flavorless at the start, another flavorless stick of nothingness. Then, out of nowhere, sweetness jumps out. Not sugar-sweetness, but some really odd relative that happens to also be bland. Somehow this stick was simultaneously really sweet and really savory. I can’t really wrap my head around it. The stick itself seemed slightly bitter, too. I won’t eat any more of them, but it was quite the sensation!

Kimberly Says:

These were...very strange. I don't know that they were bland, just...really, really strange. Somehow it was simultaneously flavorless and...had an odd flavor. It was weird that it was so sweet, because it also...wasn't.

At least it wasn't as spicy as the last snack. xD
