“Pickled plum beans” and “Kaki-no-tane” are common snacks.  You can enjoy traditional tastes which have been loved in Japan for a long time.

“Kaki-no-tane” is the small crescent-shaped soy-sauce flavored rice cracker which looks like a seed of the persimmon, or “Kaki-no-tane” in Japanese. That’s why this snack is called “Kaki-no-tane.”
