I’ve only spent one night in Hokkaido and my bag is packed. I was instructed to bring back lots of goodies from Hokkaido after our indulgences in January here and I have obeyed. 

I found a bright orange seafood and souvenir store near the station. Then there was a market area across the road. 

The problem is that they often let you try. If I still enjoy the after-taste five minutes later then it’s hard to resist. That’s how I ended up with a smokey cheese flavoured pickles. I have no idea how we will eat it.

Then there’s chocolate, local cheese crackers, cream buns and rockmelon flavoured stuff. 

I’m going to share. Promise.
