The description
Bite size ice creams, very similar to Pino in Lassi and Spice Curry flavors. There are six in one box, a bit taller than a box of Pino. They are individually wrapped.
The good
First I saw the cute box and thought this product sounded like a good candidate for my weird interest in trying strange ice cream flavors. I wasn't on the way home so I planned to pick one up at a location closer to home. I am glad that there are four of the lassi flavor and only two of the spice curry flavor. I think the colorful packaging featuring elephants is my favorite thing about the product. I liked the lassi flavor although it wasn't very exciting. The spice curry flavor is definitely a weird flavor if you like trying that kind of thing.
The not so good
I found that not all Family Mart locations carry this product. You might have to hunt for it if you want to try it. So my biggest dissatisfaction is that I hated the spice curry flavor. I like curry a lot and like spicy foods. I just thought it was awful - like a big spoonful of curry powder mixed with sugar. I am not sure what I was expecting, I just like unusual flavors, and was not expecting that strong of a taste. Considering that Japanese people don't tend to like spicy foods, I thought it would be milder too. Inside the pack, it does say, "oh, spicy" hahaha.
