Hi-Chew Morinaga review

I have noticed a new product which hit the shelves recently, Hi-Chew from Morinaga in bulk form contrary to the stick form (as seen in the picture).

The bulk form includes 3 flavours: Strawberry, Green Apple and Grape. And it is a better deal. I don't remember the exact pricing for both, but when I bought it, I did the calculation and turns out the bulk one was slightly cheaper. I think that's how most products are like (you always get a better deal if you purchase more).

The Hi-Chew in original stick form is individually wrapped in a sort of foil paper, while the other ones were contained in a plastic "pocket". I personally prefer the original foil paper as it seals the moisture better (as this IS a chewy candy after all), I also like the look of original foil that makes it unique.

For taste, I think it is the same, however, I feel that the HI-Chew candy in the new packaging is slightly dry compared to t

I also find that carrying the original stick form is easier, since you can grab at it with one hand and have the whole stick with you (it's also easier to find it in your purse), however I think for events where you have to "give" candy (parties, halloween trick or treating) the bulk form serves as an advantage.

In Conclusion, if you want a better deal with Hi-Chew candy, I would suggest you purchase the bulk form, but if you want something more "original" and more chewy I would suggest you purchase the original stick.
