Fun and Tasty boxes are filled with all the fun, tasty, and weird treats Japan is known for, as well as DIY snacks. Kawaii & Beauty boxes are filled with low-calorie treats beauty enhancing snacks, and candies with Kawaii characters. New & Limited are brand new, never before seen flavors, anime tie-ins, and one time only treats that sell out fast. Dagashi is an assortment of old-school classic candies found in neighborhood candy shops.

First look!
This was telling about the new box structure. There used to be a paper that told you what was in the box, now you have to log in online to see what you are eating. There is a link to nutrition facts online as well. ****Wowbox…..if you read this, I MISS THE SHEET!!!! It's harder going online to see what you are eating!!******
Wa Fusen Candy These are beach ball shaped hard candies in three fruity flavors. Great for a quick sweet taste on the go!
Ichigo Marshmallow These are special marshmallows with a tart strawberry center. These are yummy and I'm sure my kids are going to love them!
Salad Usuyaki These are crispy rice crackers with a salty flavor. My husband stole these. Yay for something savory! They were very good!
Dodotto Tsubupyon (Grape) This is a make-your-own weird jelly treat. If you like DIY stuff, you just have to watch the video online to see what to do. Personally, I could do without the DIY stuff.
Milky Cream Cookie Just like the name, it's a milky cream cookie and they were excellent. They are all individually wrapped inside. There were eight total cookies. Very tasty indeed!
Cream Genmai Bran (Maple and Nuts Granola) This is a crunchy snack bar with the fall flavors of maple and nuts. There are two individually wrapped packs inside, each with two bars inside. The taste is mild and this was my favorite thing in the box!
Pure Gummy Inner Support Mix Berry Yogurt These are fruity gummies with 4500 milligrams of collagen along with a berry taste. They smelled bad but tasted great LOL!
Waka Gokoro Pop (Kuromistu Kinako & Uma Shio) This is a mix of sweet and salty….brown sugar and salty popcorn in the same bag. I loved it…it was a great combo!
Yasai Seikatsu (Hokkaido Berry Mix)
This is a berry flavored drink that packs in the nutrition of vegetables. Kind of like a V8!
Friend Ramune Disney Stitch makes an appearance with these soda flavored candies!
Maho Tsukai Precure Gum The magical girls of the anime Pretty Cure grace the cover of the gum for a quick treat on the go.
Final Thought: I like this box a lot. I felt like it had the variety that some boxes lack. There was a drink, gum, gummies, sweets, savory, crunch, soft. Just like the box said, these were new, never before seen flavors. There was nothing in the box that I had tried before except the marshmallows, and that was great! There were 11 items, and the large box says 10-14, so I maybe would like to see at least one more item in it for the cost. You can check out WOWBOX with this link,
