The Daifuku I Remember for Its Beans, Beans, Beans

I didn’t expect the beans to be my first—and lasting—impression of a daifuku. Seven-Eleven’s Bean-Packed Salted Bean Daifuku tastes, above all, like eating beans, with sweetness and a somewhat assertive saltiness alongside them. The bean flavor comes through strongly, and their texture gives each bite a satisfying rhythm.

I was hooked: I bought it three times in one week. “Bean-packed” is exactly how it felt to eat.
