The popularity of animals from children is universal. I compared and ate biscuits shaped like such animals.
I got 3 kinds this time. They are "Ginbis Tabekko Animal" in Japan, "Barsen Zoo Original" in Germany, and "Grona Zoo Biscuit" in Ukraine. Purchased at Seijo Ishii for Bursen and at KALDI for Grona.
Tabekko Animal (Japan)
The bekko animal you know. A mini-sized biscuit with a crispy, light texture and a slightly salty accent.
The name in English is hardened in the shape of an animal silhouette. The variety that overwhelms others, such as separating rooster (rooster) and hen (hen), is also attractive.
However, the shape lacks fineness, probably because of the sense of security explained by the name.
It is also impressive that all animals except bats are facing to the left. The spirit of "with everyone" may be Japanese.
Zoo Original (Germany)
Slightly larger and thicker than animal biscuits, it has a crunchy and satisfying texture. You can feel the sweetness and the flavor of wheat. A well-balanced biscuit-like biscuit.
There are probably 15 types in the lineup. All of them are made so that you can predict what kind of animal they are just by looking at them.
From zoo-like animals such as lions and bears to familiar animals such as rabbits and dogs, and birds. For some reason, there were two types of horses with different poses.
It may be said that the lack of complaints and lack of attachment is German.
Zoo biscuits (Ukraine)
It is baked firmly and is the largest of the three sizes. The crunchy and firm texture and fragrance are attractive. Modest sweetness and simple taste. The wheat flavor is pikaichi.
It is unique that snakes, frogs and crocodiles are included in all 12 species. Other than that, large animals such as lions, elephants, and pigs stand out. Small animals are about hedgehogs.
This is the one I was most interested in. Fish ...? It is also meaningful that it contains only letters.
I don't know much about Ukraine, but I felt that it was Eastern European in its deformed feeling like a picture book.
