JOKUNA - Korean dried squid - Soft and chewy texture squid (Spicy, Butter, Roasted) (Mix - 2 pack)

I'm the type that likes to try foods as soon as I get them and when this arrived I had been eating my favorite ice cream which I set aside so I could try a piece... and then promptly put the ice cream away because I knew I wasn't going back for it anytime soon.All three flavors are amazing and I ate one entire package in one sitting (not like there's a lot, it's 161 kcal for the whole bag). "Spicy" is Americanized "spicy" though, meaning I couldn't even tell it was supposed to be spicy until I read the package. To give more of an idea of how "spicy" it is, I'm pretty sure my "fresh cracked black pepper is spicy" mom could tolerate it. Regardless, I found the flavors quite distinctive. The Butter was sweet, the Spicy Bulgalbi was spicy sweet flavor, not spicy heat, and the Baked Squid is a more savory flavor that fits nicely in between the two.Do mind that each of those tiny servings has 5-6g or 1.25-1.5 teaspoons of sugar so they're all a little sweet, the latter two balanced by different flavors.I've always loved squid so I'm pleased that this actually tasted both like squid and also like the flavorings; I found it nicely balanced. My only issue is that there wasn't more of it. It's a bit too expensive to regularly buy it as is (not to say I don't understand why it is) but if each flavor came in it's own bag, same size, filled up like actual jerky, (or if I were rich or if it were ebt eligible) I wouldn't be able to stop myself from buying the full size for all three in full bags they were each that good. Maybe they'll stop being "currently unavailable" one day but they'd have to add the baked one, too.--Pictures are of the back of the product both in the native Korean language and in the MTL English language. I suggest using both since the MTL text overlay obscured some of the information such as the kcal on one of the flavors which can only be seen on the original image.Also, if you care about the language translation, "Elvanseok Squid" which was supposed to be the Baked Squid was mistranslated in image ihnc why; "맥반석" is "MaekBanSeok", and "Maek" is not even close to "El" lol. I didn't really look at everything, though so there could be more mistakes.

The 3 separate samples tasted good, but threre weren't very much. A little disappointed. I do not plan to reorder.

Great alternative to beef or turkey jerky!! Nice flavor combo

Buen sabor

It’s not a gourmet eating experience but I got exactly what I wanted. I just wanted some squid to put in with the rice cakes and this works perfectly. Very good eating.

Too expensive taste good, but really no distinctive flavor. Do not recommend.

This stuff was awful and I also got sick from it… maybe I am just not used to eating squid in this form. Also has a lot of sugar in it which I was expecting. All packaging info is in Korean so no idea what was really in it till I got my Korean friend to translate for me. In the ad on Amazon it just says ‘squid’ under the ingredient list

It tastes like dried squid. The different flavors are alright.
