One piece is a good size to pick up with your fingertips and throw it into your mouth. The crunchy texture is pleasant. Although it is a block type, it is easy to unravel due to the gap, so it does not make a very loud noise.

The light taste is a good balance between the sweetness of potatoes that gradually spreads and the moderate saltiness. You can enjoy simple taste.

Consomme tastes like consomme from the moment you get on your tongue. Since the surface area is large, you can enjoy a rich consomme feeling.
