It's not red bean or cream... This fish-shaped bread that divides opinions

Mint chocolate is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing, right?

I like mint chocolate, but my daughter hates it, haha.

In Japan, mint-flavored fish-shaped bread is also sold.

Red bean and cream-filled fish-shaped bread are the best! But...

I want to try Mincho fish-shaped bread at least once~

Do I have to go to Japan to taste it?

 

A unique street snack made with mint chocolate is becoming a hot topic.

On the 24th, an online community posted a message titled "Overstepping: The Current Situation of Japanese Fish-shaped Pastry."

The revealed photo shows a fish-shaped pastry that looks quite extraordinary from its appearance. The thick fish-shaped pastry, which is larger than usual, looks so hearty just by looking at it.

The point is inside the fish-shaped bread. When you cut the fish-shaped bread in half, you can see that instead of red bean paste, it is filled with refreshing mint chocolate.

This product is a Taiyaki sold at a store called 'Kurikoan' in Japan. Taiyaki is a Japanese fish-shaped cake made by pouring batter and various fillings into a fish-shaped mold and then baking it.

In our country, fish-shaped bread (bungeoppang) typically contains red bean paste or whipped cream, but Japan makes taiyaki with a wider variety of creams. Among them, mint chocolate fish-shaped bread (mintcho bungeoppang) is very popular among mint enthusiasts.

Netizens who saw the photo responded with comments such as "Brushing teeth with fish-shaped bread," "Mint chocolate? That's gross," and "I personally like mint chocolate, but warm mint chocolate doesn't look appealing to me, especially the color."
