This one was an odd one. Still very good, but the quinoa more so just adds a texture rather than a flavor.
Roasted Quinoa and Job's Tears Milk Tea 88g

Has a little bit of a kick to it, but its very mild! Also comes with extra cheese powder packs.

Either share with a friend or get a very large bowl! This is a lot of food, but hands down the broth alone is the best i've had. Add pickled peppers!

This was delicious and did not upset my stomach. Just enough spice for flavor, but not too much!

These are very mild compared to most Topokki packs! So great if you are more sensitive to spice.
YOPOKKI Sweet & Spicy Topokki - Instant Korean Rice Cakes in Flavorful Sauce, 9.87oz | Yami
 
Intolerant_Furball profile picture
If regular Topokki is a bit too spicy for you, try this. It still has some kick, but it's more "earthy" (I don't know how else to describe it I apologize) so the spice hits lower on the palate.

Unlike normal pocky packs, this is one large pack instead of two smaller ones. The flavor is awesome though. Usually companies will use artificial banana flavoring, this is not that. Actually tastes like pudding.

I can not express strongly enough how much everyone needs to try these dang chips. WARNING they are on the sweeter side, so if you don't like sweet things, don't get them.

*TEXTURE WARNING* It is both slimey, and kind of crunchy? This was really fun to try though. I'm not sure if I'd eat it on it's own again, but definitely great to pair as a side or a topping.

Spicy Pickled Enoki Mushrooms, 6.17oz
 
Intolerant_Furball profile picture
These are very sweet, but in the best way! Add them to Tteokbokki, Takoyaki, or any other sweet/savory dish. I usually use scissors to cut them up into smaller junks since it's stringy like jerky.
