I told you it was a popular name in Japan! So popular in fact there is a cracker type product named – Julia. And of course I had to buy both the apple flavor and the strawberry flavor. For investigation purposes. 

I bought these two boxes Friday night on our way home from Yokosuka.

Sweet Apple / Strawberry Crackers/ Cookies


I waited to try them because I was too full from dinner. This morning we went to “Yorkmart” (the close Japanese grocery store) and I saw this display…

So much Julia


This was the accompanying advertisement. Google translate gave me gibberish except for the large print at the top.

I tasted them this evening with my glass of wine. The packaging is typical Japanese style – Kawaii!! Included of course are opening directions. 

A plastic bag inside the box keeps them fresh. 

They are both very sweet. I would suggest them with a dry white as a dessert. And both Dave and I agreed, the strawberry was better. With only 215 calories, they make quite a sweet impact!  Just like the Julia name implies – Sweet! 


Too much sugar made me a little sappy…
