Welcome back to The Weird Snack Show! 🎉 This episode is a snack‑tasting battle you won’t want to miss.

👾 What we’re trying:

Fizzy Cactus Gummies – the mysterious “cactuz” candy that fizz‑s, looks like a cactus, and tastes like melted Gatorade.

Chocolate‑Tree‑Stump Cookies – carved wooden “stumps” drenched in chocolate which tastes like an homage to the iconic Famous Amos cookie.

🤔 Which snack will win the taste‑test? Will the fizzy candy live up to its hype, or will the quirky tree‑stump cookies crush the competition?

Welcome back to The Weird Snack Show! 🎙️ This week Adrian debuts his fresh taper‑fade haircut (yes, we finally explain it for audio‑only listeners) and the gang dives into two wildly different treats:

1️⃣ Astronaut Ice Cream – a freeze‑dried, space‑age snack that’s been on the kitchen counter since October.

2️⃣ Japanese “Russian‑Roulette” Candy from Nijiya Market in San Francisco’s Japantown – four mystery flavors, one of which can be scorching hot!

Watch (or listen) as the crew cracks, chew, and rate each bite, debate the mystery “muscat” flavor, and survive a possible mouth‑on‑fire moment. Spoiler: the chocolate‑vanilla‑strawberry bar isn’t actually ice cream, and the candy’s “floor‑cleaner” taste will have you laughing (and wincing).

We try a new snack that came from China via San Francisco and landed directly in our mouths. These crispy potato crackers apparently get their name 1mm from I assume, being 1mm thick (or thin). They are light, slightly sweet and come in a variety of flavors. We try the wasabi, barbecue and garlic flavors and react to each of them.

Gross Content Warning. Li Hing Mui - doesn't sound too bad does it? Well I think we've done some kind of sour plum before but this was different. Sour and the most intense red color that we've ever seen. It was tart, sweet, contained a big seed and most importantly looked like a hunk of bloody flesh if or basically when you spit it out. Wow.

Adrian's still here he's just behind the camera. And he's our new hand model. That smile in the thumbnail, me looking at Adrian! He's tired wasn't up for being on camera but Juju was all about it.

We're still in a big ol' box of German snacks and today we have two more goodies. We dive into the delicious world of German snack fries and some Waffelz wafers. These are certainly not airy crispy Hot Fries. We're going to give it up for the tast of real potatoes in crispy forms, and bet, the flavors match their expectations.
