I don't know if this is out of the ordinary, but I freakin' LOVE green tea. With a passion. Anything out of Japan with green tea/matcha elements makes me so happy. Whether it be green tea ice cream, matcha lattes, to green tea kitkats... I love it all. Sometimes when I'm in Asia and out with friends I order green tea with vodka as my drink of choice.
So today my sister messages me on facebook. My family lives in Tokyo, and in said message my sister tells me about a new creation called "cookies and green tea" and says it's "sooooo yummy." It sounds godly. But I cannot find it in my nearby supermarket. I hear from a friend that it's a special edition flavor in Japan only. IS THIS TRUE?! I have googled but cannot find info. Sigh.
Looks. so. glorious!

Ok, that's pretty amazing looking. I haven't had green tea ice cream in a while.
Not all Japanese exclusives are good though.

wow those both look so good @_@

Oh, god, Jibba, LOL.
Looks like an interesting variety of ice cream. I would definitely try it, but my favourite of all time is their rocky road ice cream.

My soda on my desk is suddenly tasting funny.
CUCUMBER?! Whaaaaaaaaat. X_X

Another unique food snack that they have in Japan are Wasabi kitkats!
They taste weird but at the same time pretty yummy.

Actually it sounds pretty good. To me, at least :<

Haha... he's not confused about what kitkats are... It's because I shared with him my precious green tea kitkats the last time i saw him.
What kind of deprived child wouldn't know what kitkats are?!

My GF loves the Japanese haagen-dazs, and we took pictures of every flavour that we ate, probably close to 20.
I didn't particularly like green-tea and cookies or most of the plain ones for that matter (plain = red box), my favourite ones were from the dolce collection (it's more expensive than the regular haagen-dazs) which is their take on classic desserts with ice cream.
E.g.

Which is the real KitKat?
Hershey or Nestle?
or

When I was living there I enjoyed going to the Coldstone Creamery because they sing for you!

Hershey kitkats are a disgrace to the brand.
In fact, all American candy is vastly inferior to the British counterparts.

Oh man that nestle bring back memory of my childhood days asking my dad to buy that candy.

Those foods seem like the things I would find in the fridge during a weird dream -.-;
I hope the insides of the Wasabi KitKats are not sugary O_o
