Konbini Goodies - Death Mix (JPY 298)

I found this konbini (convenience store) goody at a 7-Eleven outlet in my neighborhood. It was pricy for a snack, but I bought one because of the tag "Death Mix - No Death No Life" and "geki kara nuts & arare (very spicy nuts & Japanese savory rice crackers)." This is made by Kabushiki Gaisha Sanshin (Sanshin Co., Ltd.) in Chiba prefecture. The company has an online store and most of its products are experimental, ranging from Japanese traditional rice crackers to mayonnaise, curry or cheese flavored ones. Unfortunately, however, this one is not on the list (as of May 14). The tag also says "Because it is so hot, please don't eat it if you don't like spicy foods. Death Hot & Spicy." Ummmmm. Of course if I didn't like spicy foods, I wouldn't try them.

Death Mix wasn't deadly spicy, at least in the beginning, but 20 seconds later, OMG, it came! But worth trying because it goes well with beer, soda or even sparkling wine.

I found on the internet two other items named also "Death Mix." One is a heavy metal band and the other a beverage, neither of which I knew of and has nothing to to with this devil snack.
