Yutaka Kyurizuke Pickled Cucumber 1 kg (Pack of 5)

I wasn't quite sure what I was going to get since what I paid was just a little more than the cost for 1 pack. So I couldn't believe it when I unpacked the delivery. I've received 5 x 1kg!!! Might not be real Japanese but definitely good enough for me. Bargain.

Years ago, I had Japanese students staying with me. They always brought gifts from home which they gave to their host families. One particular student introduced me to Perilla leaves, Aojiso sauce, Teriyaki etc and of course Japanese Pickles. They were so nice, I was afraid to eat them. I knew once I started I would scoff the lot at once - embarrassing and greedy! These arrived pretty quickly and they are so good that they can be eaten alone, without any accompanying dishes! Very highly recommended. Thanks Amazon.

I love the Japanese pickles. I had been so desired to taste them without going to a Chinese shop a bit far away from home. I wasn't disappointed when these Yukata pickles arrived. I suppose the Yukata is based/made in China but the products are perfect OK with me (almost similar to Japanese ones). The problem is that I cannot stop eating the pickles once opening the packet!!!

Being half Japanese, this is the taste of home for me, and to be honest the price is not bad compared to shops

I love Japanese pickles but these are Chinese & full of msg. Close but no cigar.

Not Japanese but Chinese and overly salty, close to the real stuff but not quite. Will be going in the bin.
