Tokyo Treat Opening Up The Halloween 2019 Box
Tokyo Treat's October 2019 box is filled with Halloween and Pokémon goodies, including a variety of Japanese snacks and candies. Tokyo Treat's bright orange box commands attention. That's why all eyes were on me this week when their October 2019 box arrived in the office, and why everyone quickly gravitated around my desk to see me open it up. When a snack box subscription company reaches out to you for a partnership, you just say yes, and you reap the benefits. As you can imagine, the box is full of pure, bright, colorful Japanese candies and snacks. This coming month's theme is Halloween, which means there were plenty of recognizable characters for everyone to fawn over. Among the non-edible items, the Flareon-styled socks ( to multiple months worth of boxes with the code POKEBONUS) were snapped up quickest. After that, everyone wanted to try the apple pie-flavored Kit Kat bars (also a bonus item for anyone subscribing to the Premium box). THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY Among the other offerings is the popular Japanese ramune drink, plastered with Pokémon Sun & Moon characters (and Pikachu, of course), which was new to me. For those unfamiliar with ramune, it's a carbonated drink that requires you to push a marble through the top so it rests halfway down the bottle, agitating the liquid and promoting the bubbliness. This was a pretty traditional flavor for the drink; for anyone familiar with Western soft drinks, it tastes the most like cream soda. My personal favorite item, though, had probably the most disturbing name: Disappearing Taste?! Mixed Gummies. While "disappearing flavor" is the last thing you'd usually want to happen with candy, the initial flavor of these candies was pretty satisfying - like longer-lasting Skittles. It's when you mix multiple flavors together that the fun starts; the packaging boasts that blending, for instance, two strawberry-flavored balls and one grape ball produces a raspberry taste. I can't vouch for its accuracy, but it is delicious. What are you doing to these innocent candies?! Keeping with the Halloween theme, many of the snacks are covered in jack-o'-lanterns, witches, ghosts, and spooky Pokémon. You've got your Gengars, your Mimikyus, and others. Anyone curious about trying out these snacks, and interested in getting bonus Pokémon items, can , and use the code POKEBONUS. At the time of writing, there are still a few more days left to subscribe in time to get the Halloween box, which is the one described in this article. As mentioned above, a box was sent to us as part of this partnership.
