Fig Newtons
I used to eat this Fig Newtons back when I was a kid. It was a snack that could be found in my grandparent's house. Usually it was sent to them by my relatives who lives in the USA. But after my grandfather died, I didn't saw this anymore. It was not available locally in the Philippines but it is known worldwide.

Oishi: Gourmet Picks Potato Chips (Wasabi & Nori Flavor)
Previously Oishi had a wasabi flavored potato chips but it was not that famous during that time and it was phased out in the market.

There are three flavors available, the Wasabi & Nori, Natural Sea Salt and the Kimchi Flavor. Later did I know that it was already in the market as early as the first quarter of the year. Its packaging was as big as the Lay's Potato Chips and they are not available in small packaging.
