This classic combination of caramel and chocolate just became a lot more portable with Mentos’ new creation. Think sweet orange spheres that melt away to reveal a sweeter milky surprise. Trust us when we say that just one will not be enough.

It might be difficult to tell what’s new from the name (hint: it’s in the pieces), but fans of Reese’s will be able to get double the chocolate peanut butter flavour in every bite. The classic peanut butter cup now comes studded with mini Reese’s pieces, so it’s double on flavour on all fronts!
Japan:

It is a common knowledge that potato chips are regarded as cheap junk food. But what happens when you infuse them with seemingly gourmet flavours? Calbee has recently released potato chips flavoured with beef and real foie gras flakes. Talk about fancy junk food.

The names of this new line of biscuits might sound off putting and weird, but the taste were surprisingly well received by reviews online. This unique blend of east-meets-west flavour is the perfect filling for the salty crackers of Ritz, with the mild horseradish kick from the wasabi and the fresh burst of seafood from the tarako (fish roe).
S.Korea:
9. Starbucks Pudding
This famous coffee chain is known for serving up refreshing caffeinated drinks. But in Korea, they have started selling custard pudding served in adorable mini-sized Starbucks cup. Boasting two flavours, vanilla and cocoa, now that’s one more reason to visit this renowned coffee chain.

Hong Kong:
11. KFC Flavoured Nail Polishes

This last item/snack falls in somewhat of a grey area. We are all familiar with KFC’s addictive and sinful fried chicken, but what if the flavours are extrapolated and made into a line of edible nail polishes? You could technically eat it, and it would technically taste like your favourite snack. But is it actually a snack? Well we’ll leave you to be the judge.
Is your tummy rumbling in excitement? You can certainly taste the international range of snacks, all without having to travel all. Simply put up a request like what other Airfrov users did, and let returning travellers purchase them for you!
