I tried to compare the ministop limited 'Big Country Ma'am' with 5 times the weight of Country Ma'am with the regular version



From April 20, 2021 (Tuesday), 'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla ' and ' Big Country Ma'am Cocoa ', which are about five times as heavy as the familiar sweet 'Country Ma'am' with a crispy and moist texture, have appeared in Ministop. .. It is said that the moist 'half-raw texture' has increased as both of them have become larger and the water has become harder to fly, so I compared them with the normal size country ma'am.

The left is 'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla' and the right is 'Big Country Ma'am Cocoa'. There is one in one bag.



Compared to the regular version, it weighs about 5 times.



Flour, shortening, chocolate, etc. are used as raw materials for 'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla'. Calories are 270 kcal per packet.



Cocoa mass and cocoa are used as raw materials for 'Big Country Ma'am Cocoa'. Calories are 260 kcal per packet.



It is a normal size country ma'am prepared for comparison.



The raw materials for the regular version look like this. It is almost the same as the main ingredients of 'Big Country Ma'am' such as flour, sugar, vegetable oil and chocolate chips.



The calorie is 48kal per vanilla and cocoa.



I arranged a large country ma'am and the regular version on a plate. At this point you can see that the sizes are completely different.



The diameter of the regular version is about 3.5 cm, while the diameter of the large country ma'am is about 8.5 cm.



The weight of the regular version is 10g, while the weight of the large country ma'am is 54g, which is more than five times as heavy.



When I split the big country ma'am by hand, it didn't feel 'crispy' or 'popping', and it certainly felt moist.



Comparing the cross sections of 'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla', it looks like this. It's not that different, but the larger country ma'am seems to be a little more lively, or slightly moist from the outside.



The cross section of 'Big Country Ma'am Cocoa' looks like this.



When I ate a bite of 'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla', I felt that it was more moist than the regular version from the texture without betraying the feel and appearance of the crack. It seems that this is because the regular version is smaller in size and the surface is crispy, while the large country ma'am has a slightly softer surface. There was also an opinion that 'sweetness is suppressed' because the proportion of chocolate is small in large country ma'am.



'Big Country Ma'am Cocoa' also has an increased moist texture and a modest sweetness. Probably because it wasn't too sweet, it was easy to eat even with 5 times the normal weight, and when I ate the whole piece, it was a highly satisfying finish.



'Big Country Ma'am Vanilla' and 'Big Country Ma'am Cocoa' are on sale at Ministop nationwide except for some stores, and the price is 120 yen excluding tax.
