‘Wet Chips’ Find A Following In Japan

April 25, 2022: 12:00 AM EST
Calbee's Nure Jaga (translated as 'wet potato') look like regular chips but are sticky to the touch and described as soft and chewy. Nure Jaga are apparently based on a chewy rice cracker, Nure Senbei, invented in 1960 by Yuji Yokoyama, a confectionery shop owner in Choshi, Chiba Prefecture. These rice crackers attained unexpected success and today are a popular accompaniment to green tea. Calbee is hoping to emulate this success with its wet chips.
