Wasabi rice crackers
I know some people on here are always on the hunt for them.
They were spotted at Carrefour MoE last night in the Japanese food section where all the ethnic foods are.

Re: Wasabi rice crackers
If you mix wasabi with the soy sauce you get at sushi places then it's not too bad, as in way more soy than wasabi

Re: Wasabi rice crackers
My point was that chances are, you’ve never actually eaten real wasabi, not at a restaurant and certainly not on a rice cracker
Real wasabi tastes more herbal than the cheap horseradish concoction. It’s hot but doesn’t have a lingering, burning aftertaste. It tastes smoother, cleaner and more “plant-like” than its commonly used substitute. The horseradish paste served in restaurants is harsher and not as fresh-tasting.

I hope that's sufficient.

You are right. What people generally get is ersatz wasabi. Very different. It's like saying that nasty instant coffee is the same as properly made real coffee.
Of course there is always the amusement in seeing the unwary adding far too much of the harsh stuff to their food.
