From my point of view 🙂
First I heard about “Amano Foods” was about Miso Soup.
Many people told me it is very closed to the real Miso Soup and very tasty in so many variations. Compared to the other instant Miso Soup, the price is higher so I have not touched it yet. Recently, I have tried and no wonder its Miso Soup is very popular in Japan now.
You can find “Amano Foods” in grocery stores but most of the time Miso Soup kind only. So I am very surprised to know that “Amano Foods” extends to the other kind of meals selling at “Amano Freeze-Drying Station.” It may be fun to take a look when you are looking for some souvenirs from Japan. If you are living in Japan, it may be a good idea to keep as stocks preparing for the disaster after earthquake and so on.
At last, please be careful of the amount of hot water which is instructed on the package. This is very important because I over-poured one time, then you know what happened
Thank you for reading my report. 🙂
