Red bean Kit Kat sounds wonderful. I wish they imported those Japanese Kit Kats at the Asian food stores here.

You CAN now by the Passion Fruit, Hokkiado White and the Hokkiado Cafe
Latte Kit Kats in CyberCandy, Covent Garden, London.

But they are £1.98....

so not for your everyday snack. Just for a special treat etc..  
But it does beat shipping them from Japan or the US via ebay.

Red bean Kit kat?...

That's it they've gone too far

I like to try oddball stuff. If it doesn't work out then fine but at least they tried something different.

CDM with........."slightly different bits inside"!

I agree this is going a bit too far - red bean chocolate just sounds bad

Did you try the green tea one kevvosa?

The Green Tea was great!

Yes choc chick it was vile. The only Kitkat I have tried where I
couldn't bear to finish it. It just tasted what I imagine vomit tastes
like. I was told that you will like it if you like white choc...well I
love white choc but this was an abomination.

Mind you, the melon flavour was quite nice. Only bad thing was the Japanese chocolate - not as nice as ours.

I have tried it too. I didn't think it was too bad. Would love to try the melon one.

All these flavoured Kit Kats are pretty gross. I wouldnt mind trying the green tea one though. Why do the Japanese get all the interesting flavours?

Green tea is gross.



Passionfruit is gorge.

I often get choc and candy sent from Japan by wifes family. The red bean Kit Kat is extremely nice, and no red beans do not taste like kidney beans! In japan red beans are a very common filling for cakes and are delisiosly sweet. Also tried Cafe Cream version also nice.

The kit kats I have sampled from Japan come individualy packed in their own boxes. Classy or what!

Also the Japanese Chocolate is not as sweet as ours in the UK, which in my opinion is not a bad thing.

I am desperate to get my teeth into a Banana Kit Kat which sounds perfect. Saw one advertised on Ebay in the states, but is LTD edition.

I fancy the idea of a Pineapple Kit Kat with a not-too-sweet plain or milk chocolate coating. I believe  these have been available in Japan for some years.

i'd like to try a banana one.

did they stop making the lemon yoghurt one? that was my favourite

The banana one is very nice so is the pineapple one. I got the banana
one off eBay and the pineapple one from cybercandy, but it was from
South Africa, not Japan.
