This is another famous and popular rice cracker product line from a manufacturer Kameda-Seika. This product line named “kakinotane”. “Kaki” means persimmon, “tane” means seeds and “no” is just like “of” in English.
They say the name “kakinotame” comes from the shape. Personally I don’t think it looks like a persimmon seed… but I read an article that a person from the manufacture thought it looked like a persimmon seed then named it “kakinotane”.
“Kakinotane” has a lot of different flavors and this time they feature Green Perilla flavor. Also “kakinotane” usually comes with some peanuts but this one comes with salt & lemon flavored squid tempura crackers!
