口味奇特的日本零食

Japan is like a parallel universe. In America， it’s customary to wash down a mouthful of Cool Ranch Doritos with a refreshing swig of Pepsi. In Japan， you’ll find those same tasty snacks， but the corn chips could be anchovy-flavored， and that bottle of Pepsi might taste like spicy， bitter ginger.

We’ve cobbled together this list of Japanese-exclusive flavors of popular munchies. From beer-flavored ice cream to orange-flavored potato chips， some of these flavors really leave us scratching our heads.

日本好像处在另一个平行世界里。在美国，人们常往嘴里塞一把多力多滋玉米片，再喝一大口清凉的百事可乐。你在日本也可以找到这些美味可口的零食，但玉米片成了凤尾鱼风味，而瓶装的百事可乐可能是辛辣苦涩的姜味。

我们收集整理了那些具有日本特色和风味的流行小吃。从啤酒味的冰淇淋到橙子味的薯片，有些味道真让我们摸不着头脑。

Ice Cream 冰淇淋

Speaking of seafood， a surprising amount of it ends up in ice cream. Frozen treats can come in jellyfish， crab， shrimp， shark’s fin， whitebait， and fried oysters flavors in Japan， and that’s not even the most bizarre kind.

Ever wanted to try Indian curry ice cream? How about coal-flavored ice cream? Horse meat? Beer?

Then there’s this beautiful monument to gluttony: pizza in a cone. Yes， it’s not technically ice cream， but it is glorious.

说到海鲜，有很多海产都被制作成了冰淇淋。日本有海蜇、螃蟹、虾、鱼翅、银鱼和炸牡蛎等口味的冷饮，而这些还不是最奇怪的。

想尝尝印度咖喱味的冰淇淋吗？木炭口味的怎么样？马肉味的如何？啤酒味呢？

此外还有被吃货们津津乐道的不朽作品：披萨甜筒。这确实不是严格意义上的冰淇淋，但也值得一提。

Doritos (and potato chips) 多力多滋玉米片和薯片

The craziest thing America has done with Doritos is making taco shells with them. Japan hasn’t crossed that line， but the iconic corn chips do come in some very interesting flavors over there.

Some of these actually seem like they’re worth trying; Who wouldn’t want fried chicken or steak Doritos? But then there’s crispy salmon and roe (fish eggs) with mayo， which we’re more hesitant about.

Seafood flavors do appear frequently in Asian snacks. But can we at least all agree that orange-flavored potato chips are gross?

美国人对多力多滋做过的最疯狂的事就是用它制玉米卷。日本人还没做到那步，但在日本传统的玉米片被制成一些非常有趣的风味。

其中某些口味似乎值得一试，谁不愿尝一尝炸鸡味和炸牛排味的玉米片呢？但对于三文鱼味和蛋黄酱鱼子味的脆片，我们却要三思而后行了。

海鲜味的零食在亚洲很常见，所以这可能只是我们的偏见。但至少我们都会同意橙子味薯片很糟糕吧？

KitKats 奇巧巧克力

KitKats are kind of a big deal in Japan. That’s right—those run-of-the-mill， chocolate-covered wafers you binge on during Halloween are a revered super-candy over there.

But the Japanese aren’t satisfied with coating their biscuits in milk chocolate and calling it a day. KitKats in Japan come in a dizzying array of flavors.

Green tea， edamame， wasabi， and red bean all sound like unsurprisingly Asian flavors， but then we get into some really weird stuff， such as ginger ale， buttered corn and hot chili pepper.

And then there’s the KitKat Pizza. You probably never thought you’d ever see those two words together.

奇巧巧克力在日本非常热销。是这样没错——在万圣节大吃特吃的那些普通的巧克力饼干，在日本被推崇为一种高级甜食。

但日本人吃牛奶巧克力脆片并不感到满足，他们的巧克力还有各种各样令人晕头转向的口味。

绿茶、毛豆、芥末和红豆味似乎都是不出意料的亚洲风味，但我们还了解到一些匪夷所思的口味，比如姜汁汽水味、奶油玉米味和红辣椒味。

此外还有奇巧披萨，你可能从未想过这两个词会组合到一起。
