Draft:Japanese-Snacks-Lab

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Japanese Snack Lab is a web media that promotes the appeal of Japanese snacks to the world. It provides detailed descriptions of Japanese snacks and their charms, and serves as a source of information for snack lovers and the curious.

Their mission is to spread the appeal of a wide variety of Japanese snacks to the world and bring smiles to people all over the world.

Japanese Snack Lab was founded in October 2023 by a single Japanese university student. When a friend of his came back from studying in the U.S., he realized that the appeal of Japanese snacks had not spread to the world at all. This led him to establish this web media.
