I’ll be first to say that I enjoy almonds, usually the smokehouse ones. You know the ones I’m talking about. I’m pretty partial to chocolate ones too although I don’t usually have them. I’ve had ones with crunchy candy coating too. I also tasted almond milk the other day – tasty but just seemed so weird – but I liked it.
These on the other hand are a chicken of a different color as it were. Let’s take a look and see how they are.
Samyang Foods Buldak Bokkeummyun Hot Chicken Flavor Almonds – South Korea
Here’s the back of one of the individual packages (click to enlarge). They come in a display box also. No meat here. To prepare, open package, insert pair of grabby fingers. Grasp one or more almonds. Insert into primary face hole. Finally, masticate andf enjoy!
A single almond.
Finished (click to enlarge). The almonds are smooth and shiny from the thin crunchy coating. They are indeed hot – very hot. I really expected a heat level more along the lines of the Zzaldduck snack but these are rip-roaring feisty spicy. The almonds are of good quality and the flavor is undoubtedly Buldak Bokkeummyun original. For a snack, I give these 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 8801073910157.
California probably makes the most almonds anywhere I’m guessing. This looks to be a promo video for use in South Korea.
