Mos Burger, a hamburger chain, and

Japan Frito -Lay, a confectionery maker, have collaborated to create a ' thick chips moss chicken flavor ' that reproduces the popular side menu 'moss chicken' from Monday, July 11, 2022. Supervised by the moss chicken developer, he said that he was particular about texture, flavor, and response so that he could feel moss chicken with a bite, so I actually tried to see what kind of chips it was made.

'Thick chips moss chicken flavor' is available at convenience stores as well as mos burger stores, so I actually visited mos burger.

I ordered 'thick chips moss chicken flavor' at takeout.

A large photo of moss chicken is printed on the package.

Looking at the raw material names, corn, vegetable oil, sugar, powdered soy sauce, chicken extract powder, garlic powder, white pepper powder, bonito extract powder, kelp extract powder, ginger powder, etc. are used.

The calorie per 100g of the product is 514kcal, which is 771kcal in terms of one bag (150g), which is quite high. The calorie of one moss chicken is 269 kcal , so it is calculated that one bag of 'thick chips moss chicken flavor' has the calories of about three moss chickens.

Open it and put the contents on a plate.

Thick rectangular snacks are grooved, with pepper and other powders on the surface, and the snack itself is kneaded with what looks like corn skin.

The size of one sheet is about 4 to 5 cm.

Looking at the 'thick chips moss chicken flavor' (right) and the regular 'moss chicken' (left) purchased for comparison, it looks like this. Not only the shape but also the color is different.

When I tried it immediately, I could feel the crunchy texture, the taste of garlic, white pepper, soy sauce, and the flavor of chicken extract, and it was finished in a fairly high quality as chips. Since each piece is thick and heavy in fat, people with small meals are likely to get full with just one bag.

If you try the comparative moss chicken, you can see that the crisp texture of the batter and the Japanese-style seasoning of soy sauce are well reproduced in the chips, and the aftertaste is quite similar thanks to the chicken extract.

The price of 'Thick Chips Moss Chicken Flavor' is 290 yen including tax, and it can be purchased at Mos Burger and convenience stores nationwide from July 11, 2022 (Monday) except for some stores. Due to the limited quantity, sales will end as soon as they are sold out.
