Morinaga Uma-Chew Soft Candy Green Apple, 12 Pieces

Morinaga Uma-Chew (うまイチュウ) is the softer, juicier cousin of Japan's beloved Hi-Chew, made by Morinaga, one of Japan's most trusted confectionery houses. This Green Apple variant delivers a fresh, tangy-sweet fruit flavor wrapped in a uniquely soft chew studded with crispy candy bits for a satisfying 'cali-juwa' (crunchy-then-juicy) texture. Each individually wrapped piece is the perfect bite-size treat for the office, school bags, road trips, or sharing. For Filipino fans of authentic Japanese snacks, it makes an easy, affordable pasalubong and a fun way to enjoy a genuine taste of Japan at home.
