はじめまして ~ Nice to meet you

Thanks for joining me!
My name is Jo and I’m here to talk about Japanese snacks.

Kagamimochi and Amazake for the New Year

I fell in love with Japanese food and snacks as a teenager and they have continued to be a huge part of my life ever since.
Growing up in a small UK town has often limited my experiences with Japanese foods, but through the magic of Internet shopping I have been able to feed my addiction and try many different types of snacks over the past couple of decades.

I’m starting this blog mostly as a sidekick to my Instagram page which I started in November 2018, and I hope that it can help to improve not only my minimal grasp of Japanese but also help to refresh my English writing skills.

From this blog you can expect: someone with a second stomach made for Japanese food, someone with a passion for the snacks of Japan, an enthusiastic look into the world of Dagashi and a place where you can hopefully discover your new favourite snacks or food along the way.

Please know that this blog isn’t: a place for serious reviews, a serious business venture, an academic project, a place for perfect Japanese, or a place for perfect photography. I’m just here to have fun and I hope you will too!


Hope to see you soon!
またね!
