🎌 Calbee "Potato Chips Three Brothers"

The well-known Japanese snack brand Calbee (卡樂比) has launched "Jagariko" (薯條三兄弟), a popular souvenir produced at their factory in Chitose, Hokkaido, and mainly sold locally in Hokkaido. The name of the product is cleverly derived from the main ingredient, potato (じゃがいも), and the homophonic connection to the fairy (コロポックル) from the Ainu people's legends of Hokkaido. Jagariko uses 100% Hokkaido-grown potatoes, specifically cut whole with the skin on, and through a unique process, it preserves the natural sweetness of the potatoes, resulting in a crispy texture and rich aroma. The salt used in Jagariko is 95% sourced from the Sea of Okhotsk. The seawater is taken from Lake Saroma along the coast of the Sea of Okhotsk and is simmered slowly over low heat, resulting in a gentle and delicate flavor. It is a classic snack that perfectly showcases the sweet flavor of Hokkaido potatoes.

Manufactured by the renowned Japanese snack brand Calbee (カルビー), it is one of the most representative snacks from Hokkaido. The name is derived from the Ainu legend of the fairy "コロポックル (koro-pokkuru)." The ingredients use 100% Hokkaido-grown potatoes. 95% of the salt comes from the Sea of Okhotsk in Hokkaido. With the natural aroma of potatoes and a crispy texture, it's a snack that you can't stop eating once you start.
