Trader Joe s New The Crispy Crunchy Mochi Rice Nuggets 6.35oz 3 Pack

Black Eyed Peas, Cream, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Smashing Pumpkins, Cake, The Cranberries… all top-notch bands named after top-notch foods. Such successes have inspired us to turn one of our new products into its own rock band. Ladies and gentlemen… Trader Joe’s presents: The Crispy Crunchy Mochi Rice Nuggets! We discovered these tasty little Nuggets in a Japanese airport and instantly fell in love. They’re made in Japan from the same glutinous rice as mochi, a chewy rice paste. Steamed rice is mechanically kneaded until turned into a silky smooth paste, which is then stretched into long ropes, cut into pieces, and dried. The small squares are fried, which puffs them up. Then, they are tossed in sea salt. The resulting Nuggets are savory and addictive
