I bought and ate all kinds of 'Jaga Bolda' jointly developed by Calbee and Tokyo Banana.



The first jointly developed product ' Jaga Bolda ' by Calbee and Tokyo Banana is now available. The Japanese restaurant '

Hiroo Onoki ' supervised the seasoning of the evolutionary potato chips, so I tried to see what kind of taste it was.

I found a store of potato boulder in Gransta Tokyo in the basement of Tokyo station.



Four kinds of boxed potato boulders were sold in the store.



That's why I bought all four flavors of 'bonito and kelp umami', 'lemon sugar', 'sansho miso', and 'kaidashi aosa' and brought them home.



The outer box of 'Umami soup stock of bonito and kelp' looks like this. The product name and taste are listed in high-quality gold letters. Jaga Boulder is based on the concept of 'Aiming for height and grasping the taste', and the product name was changed to 'Jaga Bouldering' by bouldering aiming for height as well. You can also see the illustration of the bouldering person on the outer box.



The best-by date of normal potato chips is 6 months from the time of manufacture, but since the best-by date of this potato boulder purchased in November 2020 was February 2021, it seems to be a little short, 4 months from the time of manufacture.



The name is confectionery, and along with the same raw materials as ordinary potato chips such as potatoes, vegetable oil, soy sauce, and sugar, the names of umami seasonings such as kelp extract, amino acid solution, and dried bonito extract seasoning are listed. Manufacturer in Calbee, vendors will sell Tokyo Banana

grape stone is.



The calories per bag is 97 kcal.



Pakari the box. It seems that the 'KGT manufacturing method' is used, which makes it difficult for powder (K) to stick to (G) hands (T). In addition, potato chips using the 'KGT manufacturing method' are only potato chips.



Inside the box was a potato boulder divided into four sachets.



An illustration of a bouldering person is also drawn on the pouch.



Also, on the back of the pouch, the name of the raw material, the nutrition facts label, and the expiration date are written on the back of the pouch, so it is safe to divide it into small pieces and distribute them to people.



I will take it out of the pouch immediately.



There were 13 potato chips in the pouch.



The length of the largest potato chips is about 5 cm.



If

you line up the potato chips light taste next to it, you can see that the potato boulder is quite small like this. ..



The thickness is like this. The potato boulder is thick and has a zigzag cut.



One pakuri. With a crispy texture, you can feel the umami of bonito as you chew, and the scent of kelp disappears from your nose. In addition, the surface is a little moist and does not get powder on your fingers.



The outer box of 'lemon sugar flavor' looks like this.



Ingredients include potatoes, vegetable oils, reduced starch syrup, and other names that seem to have strong acidity, such as lemon juice, powdered vinegar, and lemon zest powder.



Calories are 95 kcal per bag.



There are 4 sachets in the box as well as 'Umami taste of bonito and kelp'.



When I try to eat one, it has a refreshing taste with the sourness of lemon. However, the sourness is not so strong, and the taste is finished so that it can be eaten quickly.



Next, let's take a look at 'Shellfish Dashi Aosa Flavor'.



Inside the box, like other potato boulders, there are 4 sachets.



In addition to sea lettuce, the raw material names include names with strong umami such as sea lettuce, scallop extract powder, kelp extract powder, and dried bonito extract powder.



The calorie per bag is 95 kcal.



When you open the pouch of 'Shellfish Dashi Aosa Flavor', the scent of the shore drifts around. In addition, you can see that the surface is covered with blue. It looks just like the nori-flavored potato chips.



When I try to eat it, the umami of the shellfish is very strong, and I can feel the slight bitterness peculiar to the shellfish. Unlike the taste of nori-flavored potato chips, it has a scent of sea lettuce, but the taste is light, and the main seasoning is shellfish.



The last thing to eat is 'sansho miso flavor'.



In addition to powdered powder, the names of raw materials include spices such as Chinese pepper, ginger extract, and Japanese pepper.



The calorie per bag is 96 kcal.



There are 4 sachets in the box.



Powdered spices are sprinkled on the surface of 'Sansho Miso Flavor'. Also, unlike other potato boulders, the surface is coated with miso.




When I try to eat it, the sweet miso and spices such as Chinese pepper and Japanese pepper are combined to create a sweet and spicy seasoning. The name is 'Sansho miso', but the flavor of Chinese pepper is stronger than that of Sansho. Also, the taste was the strongest of the four types of potato boulders.



I tried all four types of potato boulders, but all of them had a moist texture compared to normal potato chips, and I felt that it was more suitable for eating slowly while chatting rather than eating all at once. I will. Also, since it is difficult for powder to stick to your hands, it is also difficult to get into the embarrassing situation of 'licking your fingers in public'. These potato chips are recommended to take home as a souvenir from Tokyo and eat slowly while talking with everyone.

In addition, all four types of potato boulders are on sale at stores that handle them for 756 yen excluding tax. Some products are available at Daimaru Tokyo Tokyo Banana Studio and Tokyo Banana in Tokyo Soramachi, but all four types are available only at the Jaga Bolda dealers in Gransta Tokyo. It can also be obtained from the official online shop for a limited time until November 28, 2020.
