All Reviews of Jagarico

My first time trying Calbee Jagarico potato sticks, and the texture was really unique! The short sticks are crispy but also have a bit of firmness, and they get more flavorful the more you chew. The salty taste makes them hard to stop eating. The compact cup is also very convenient, perfect for snacking while watching shows or traveling. Once I started popping them into my mouth one by one, I couldn't stop!

Whenever I see Calbee Jagarico potato sticks while browsing a supermarket in Japan, I can't resist grabbing a cup. Unlike regular potato chips, which are thin and crispy, these are short potato sticks with a firm, crunchy texture, and the more you chew, the more you can taste the potato flavor. What I like most is how convenient they are to carry, and the cup packaging makes them perfect for snacking while traveling. After getting tired from shopping, I'll sit down to rest and open a cup, then find myself eating one after another. I usually think, “I'll just have a few,” but before I know it, the cup is almost empty.

Besides the flavors sold in regular supermarkets, there are also special regional varieties. For example, the Calbee store on Kokusai Street in Okinawa sells an exclusive purple sweet potato flavor. They're fried fresh to order and served hot, with a soft, dense texture. Worth trying.

Whenever I see these at a Japanese supermarket, it’s honestly hard not to toss them into my basket. Kids love them, and adults can’t help but keep reaching for one after another—this is such a popular Japanese potato snack!

The cup packaging is super convenient. Open it up and you get crispy potato sticks, perfect for watching shows, riding in the car, or snacking while traveling.

There are lots of flavors too, like the classic salad, cheese, buttered potato, and mentaiko butter. The most popular one is the salad flavor, with a light veggie aroma and hints of carrot and celery. The more you eat, the more addictive they get!

Crispy, sweet, and a little salty—so yummy!

The first time I ever had this snack was when my uncle and aunt brought it back from a trip to Japan as a souvenir for me. I fell in love with it right away. After that, every time they went to Japan, I’d look forward to them bringing this back for me. But sometimes they couldn’t because it took up too much space, and I’d end up all pouty... I was little back then.

Now I can go get it myself, hehe.

Every time before heading back to the hotel, I stop by a convenience store, and if I’m not sure what to buy, I just grab this.

A must-buy every time I go to a convenience store in Japan.

The limited-edition flavor was as tasty as always.

A must-buy snack, so tasty!

Tasty and fills you up.

A must-have for the Shinkansen! 😋

Crispy and delicious! Loved it!
