I tried and compared 5 kinds of new sweets using FamilyMart's "Meyer lemon from Mie prefecture". All of them are characterized by a fragrant and refreshing citrus flavor, but there were some that especially had a lemon flavor.

The following 5 types were compared by eating this time. All are sweets that appeared in the first week of August.
