Calbee Takoyaki Ball Kimchi Cheese (3.17oz)

Picture a summer night at a Japanese festival: glowing paper lanterns, sizzling grills, and the smell of fresh takoyaki drifting through the crowd. Calbee Takoyaki Ball captures that street food spirit in a light, poppable corn puff. Shaped just like the famous round takoyaki dumplings, each puff is crunchy, airy, and dusted with bold seasoning. This Kimchi Cheese version brings a tangy, gently spicy kimchi kick together with rich, creamy cheddar. It’s savory, a little zesty, and seriously hard to stop eating. And don’t worry: no octopus inside. Just big flavor in every bite-sized ball.

Its name blends “calcium” and “vitamin B1,” a reflection of the company’s early goal of making snacks that were both tasty and nourishing. In 1964, Calbee launched Kappa Ebisen shrimp chips, which became a national favorite, and it later grew into one of Japan’s largest snack companies. In 1970, Calbee brought its snacks to the United States with the founding of Calbee America. Today, Calbee America creates Asian-inspired snacks like Shrimp Chips, JagaRico, and Takoyaki Ball, sharing the flavors of Japan with snack lovers across the country.
