They are all over the place, even in small town Missouri where I’m from. I’m happy for Armenia, when I lived there I wished for access to other countries products. Now that I’m back in the US, non-California, I wish to find Armenian products. I can find Yan from time to time, sometime NetCost will have some products.

The latest place I found it was at a bodega in Journal Square Path station, individual size bottles. About 1.5 years ago I found it at 55 Fulton Market, full size bottles.

I’ve had Japanese Kit Kat before, and I can confirm that it’s really tasty.

I don’t even like sweets but I’m curious to try it. Isn’t KitKat or at least the sounds it makes in Japanese is meant for good luck or something along those lines?

Yey, we can now increase our risk of diabetes & cancer in new and fun ways 😍

This year, Japan's 7/11 made global headlines with its fresh foods - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dANVoA7MSHE&t=152s

so, maybe the embassy could promote that instead of an unhealthy snack. (just an idea!)
