Konpeito = Star Bits

Posted by: David in Japan, tags: ,

I spotted these on the shelves with all the other Japanese candy at a supermarket. If you’ve played Super Mario Galaxy, I think you’ll agree that they look exactly like star bits. (As always, click on the picture to see a closeup.)

    I totally used to eat those when I was a kid in Japan. They taste like solid sugar balls.
