items This might not be full of the HEALTHIEST options, but everything here is so yummy it's kinda like ... just eat it?
These are so addictive, perfect crunchy texture and I can't stop eating them. Okay but low key, they're actually pretty spicy 😭😂 but that doesn't stop me from downing handfuls mixed with popcorn on movie nights
Hapi Gluten Free Crispy Rice Cracker Mix
Disclaimer: These are very spicy but also SO GOOD so prep your tummy if you're sensitive
Squid Seafood Snack 12x6g Sweet & Spicy
One of my faves and I could eat this forever, soy sauce flavor is apparent on this one, but I'm also Asian and I don't think it's a lot haha
Shirakiku Japanese Nori Maki Rice Crackers
Basic or classic? You decide. But grape is actually an underrated flavor and deserves some love
Hi-Chew - Target
SO GOOD. It's like they captured the best part of eating crunchy fries with ketchup
Orion O! Tube Tomato Ketchup 115g - Case of 12
I kept hearing about these, and had to check them out myself to see if they were worth the hype… they totally are. It’s not as much of a seaweed taste as you might think, and they’re like slightly less crunchy then pretzels, but you have to try them ...
Calbee JagaRico Umami Seaweed (2 Pack)
This is something we enjoyed frequently as kids and that is such a special treat and also really hard to describe (it's like a biscuit w pineapple preserves inside)
Taiwanese Pineapple Cake - Té Company
This isn't something that's necessarily packaged but if you're able to find any in stores or bakeries near you, you HAVE to try it out. It's creamy and custardy and rich and flaky all at the same time without being too sweet
Hong Kong Egg Tarts - Dim Sum - The Woks of Life
These are an Asian childhood classic that we all grew up eating an aggressive amount of

If your mom didn't put these in the freezer for you as a kid, were you even Asian?? These are incomparable and nothing like American jello

Ftied up fresh and on a skewer , this is a traditional Taiwanese street snack and something I grew up eating and loving. It's sweet and crisp and nothing like American sausages
All You Salty-Sweet Fans, Chinese Sausage is For You
You can either boil or fry these and they’re a traditional street snack dusted with a blend of white pepper and salt, and both umami and a source of protein
Choripdong Assorted Fried Fish Ball Same-Day Delivery - Hmart
There’s something so special and tropical about this, and when they’re properly from Asian markets, they taste different than the kind you get in American grocers
OHLA Dried Guava Same-Day Delivery - Hmart
We used to beg our mom to buy these at the market and they were such a special treat, just so buttery and melt in your mouth w a coconut glaze
KHONG GUAN Butter Coconut Biscuits 康元 牛油椰子餅 200G
