Yan Yan has always been a favorite snack since I was a little girl. I always put some in our shopping cart when my mom would take me grocery shopping with her. It’s the first thing I enthusiastically reach for as soon as we get home. I think I will never outgrow my love for this snack.

I’m happy that Meiji improved their product by putting pictures and quotes on the sticks. Imagine yourself in the midst of your busy work day and you have a Yan Yan to give you a pleasant sugar break. I love reaching for each stick and reading what it says before I chomp on it. I believe it is important to take some time off every day to appreciate the silly and cute.

It is satisfying as it leaves you with a feeling of lightness- a snack for the soul. How amazing it is to pause and breathe and smile while filling your tummy with something delicious.
