Have you ever heard of MUJI's "Sweet and Vinegar Squid Legs," which some fans have been saying "I can't get enough of this" and "I'm addicted to it"? These are squid legs marinated in sweet and sour vinegar, cut into pieces, and packed in a bag.

Taste and texture review

There are about 4-5 squid legs in the package. The longest ones are about 10 cm in length and 2 cm in width, but since they are packed without distinction, even the ones of unequal size are packed together, so you can enjoy the variation in size.

When I bit into it, I found it to be extremely chewy! The bite is so strong and elastic that your jaw gets a workout, and it takes quite a while to bite off the thick leg. Still, after chewing for a while, the juicy squid flavor slowly seeps out, intertwined with the sweetness and saltiness of the sweet vinegar...yummy! The strong flavor makes me want a beer! And it makes you feel so full.

It's like an "adult version" of the sweet-and-sour squid snacks I used to eat as a child. The first time you eat it, you may think, "What the heck? However, be careful if you are not confident in your chewing ability.

The 80g (2.82oz) package is priced at 299 yen (tax included).
