Milk teas have been my jam for some time, so when I got this Hojicha Latte in this month's Japan Crate I was actually really excited for it. Hojicha is a green tea that's roasted in a porcelain pot over charcoal. This gives it a toasty, caramel flavor, which pairs well with milk.

I have a love for Japanese snacks that have mascots on them. It makes the snack that much more fun to eat -- plus, it's appealing to the eye. My next snack from this month's Japan Crate box are these simply adorable Pandaro Cookies!

As reported not too long ago, McDonald's brought back the Szechuan Sauce for the masses. But does it live up to all the hype surrounding it?
