Sahweet.  So I decided to take a bit of a break (heh) from the J-List extravaganza to try out some green tea KitKat.  By the way, I&#8217;ve added a &#8220;KitKat&#8221; category because it seems KitKat is the new Pocky so I thought I&#8217;d give y&#8217;all a new category button to click.<\/p>\n<p>Back a bit I reviewed <a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?p=487\">Green Tea Milk<\/a> KitKat, which was basically green tea, sweet, KitKat crunchy with a white chocolate smoothness. This Green Tea KitKat is similar except it&#8217;s a lot more hard core Green Tea.  It has a nice matcha bite to it and not a lot of milky white chocolate to smooth it out and for whatever reason it didn&#8217;t seem as sweet.  Perhaps the bitter green tea cut some of the sweet.  Speaking of green tea, this KitKat got it right.  I&#8217;m not a big Green Tea lover but I could certainly appreciate the nice Green Tea-y-ness (I made up that word) it had going for it.  <\/p>\n<p>I took a hop over to Snack Love and I think <a href=\"http:\/\/ebidebby.blogspot.com\/2008\/09\/matcha-kitkat.html\">this<\/a> is a similar green tea beast.  Meanwhile, the Japanese Snack Reviews has <a href=\"http:\/\/japanesesnackreviews.blogspot.com\/2009\/06\/green-tea-matcha-kitkat.html\">exactly this KitKat<\/a> reviewed.  They both seem to like KitKat (matcha) and my Guinea pigs were pleased as well so I think I shall go with a <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/?page_id=2\">Rating<\/a> of <strong>4 wasabi peas<\/strong> out of a possible 5 wasabi peas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,34,35,21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-40-peas","category-grean-tea","category-kitkat","category-sweet"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1068"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1068\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1086,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1068\/revisions\/1086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quirkspace.com\/jsfr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
