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 salt & garlic seasoning flavor.

★★☆☆☆
I got this at AEON, one of the biggest supermarkets in Japan. There’s an indication saying “limited time only” so we can get it not anytime…
Get again?

I would rather try different flavor to find my favorite!
