Green Tea Kit Kat

That's right. They are mostly sugar. I tried this green tee bar and never want it again. Once is enough. Actually, more than enough.

It's not really an oddity. Green tea flavored confectionaries can be found all over Japan. I've had this Kit-Kat, and it actually tastes really good; much better than any chocolate bar that comes out of North America.

But I agree, it's not a healthy bar. It uses a simulated matcha (green tea) flavor, so the health benefits of the tea are not present. It's just another flavor in Japan, just like orange, coffee, or vanilla here. It's just different cultures. But North America is starting to catch on, even Starbucks is offering a green tea frappucino.

As a drinker of green tea, I personally think it's hardly the most flavorsome of drinks. Maybe I've got a poor palate - but it still seems odd to me to give things a flavor of green tea.

It sounds interesting, that's for sure. But if I'm going to eat a candy bar, it's going to be made of chocolate!

i drink green tea too, but i always add lemon and drink it iced, because plain green tea is nasty as hell.

i once made the mistake of buying green tea flavoured gelato....it tasted like mashed grasshoppers.

Green kitkats taste weird

Yummy! it tastes when you take some kit kates with green tea. I have those soon after I take my lunch or dinner.

Yes indeed Green tea has marvelous taste but with kit kate wel i don't think it can hip the party.

I'm a pretty picky person when it comes to food and hesitant to try something odd like this when it comes to sweets. my friend convinced me to try this when i was in japan last year. hands down, one of my favorite sweets now. i agree with other readers - green tea does not taste good, but this candy is a treat. kit kat got it right with this confection. now, if they would release this stateside!

Oh my - whenever anyone asks what my favorite food is, I always jokingly say Chocolate, cheese, or even chocolate covered cheese!

I didn't know you could actually get something like that! It doesn't surprise me though, as I know people that make *and* swear by the goodness of Velveeta Fudge. I can't say I've tried it though...

I miss Green Tea Kit Kats. Our Tokyo office brought them last year. :(

The Green Tea Kit Kats sound intriguing. No offence, but I think it'll be a while before I try the Velveeta Fudge!

Mmm mm man i wish i lived in japan these things look delicious. I lovvvee green tea mochi balls and green tea iced and hot. i am tempted to write nestle about selling these in the US! haha too bad.

oh wow, you've tried mashed grasshoppers? because if I were you, I think I would plain green tea over that.

no one drinks iced green tea....I guess it's only reserved for grasshopper eaters
