'Super Dimension Wasa Beef' Tasting Review: Coughing when Eating at Once with a Strong and Intense Spiciness



Yamayoshi Seika's 'Wasabi Beef' has evolved into ' Super Dimensional Wasabi Beef ,' which was lined up at a convenience store, so I bought some and tried it.

The package looked like this, with 'Super Dimension' standing out more than the 'Wasa Beef' character.



It comes with a warning that 'Wasabi is very pungent, so those who don't like spicy food should be careful.'



'The evolution of Wasa Beef never stops!!' and the spiciness and deliciousness of Wasa Beef in 2026 will be 'truly on another level!!'



One 50g bag contains 262kcal. The ingredients are potatoes, vegetable oil, sugar, etc. The source of the spiciness seems to be wasabi powder or spice extracts.



I put it on a plate. With super spicy chili chips, you might feel a stinging sensation in your eyes at this point, but with the Super Dimension Wasabi Beef, even when I got close to it and smelled it, there was no irritating smell and it didn't cause any damage to my eyes.



For this reason, I ate it with the image of a 'Wasa Beef' arrangement, but the moment I put it on my tongue, the tingling spiciness ran through to the back of my mouth, and at the same time, the side of my lips started to tingle. Just when I had changed my mind, 'This is bad, it's spicy...', the umami spread and I turned my hand over, saying, 'No, it's spicy, but it's delicious,' but then another wave of spiciness came and attacked me like a wave of 'It's spicy after all!' However, with the exquisite seasoning, I reached out, saying, 'It's spicy, but one more piece.' My impression after eating it was that the smaller pieces were more offensive than the larger pieces, and it felt like the spicy powder reached the back of my throat, so it's best to avoid the common practice of holding a bag or plate over your mouth and swallowing the rest of the potato chips. The editorial staff thought they could handle spicy food, but they were attacked in the middle of the process, and a fairly large cough appeared.



'Super Dimension Wasa Beef' will be available at convenience stores from Monday, January 12, 2026, and will be released to the public on Monday, January 19, 2026, with a standard retail price of 180 yen. At the time of writing, we checked Amazon and found that normal 'Wasa Beef' is sold at a price close to the standard price, but 'Super Dimension Wasa Beef' is only available for over 300 yen per bag, so it is better to look for it at convenience stores or supermarkets.
