Chelsea Yogurt Scotch by Meiji

Chelsea Yogurt Scotch Front

I wasn’t even sure what this was when I bought it. Candy? Gum? Weight loss supplement? Yogurt Scotch could be just about anything and the idea intrigued me.

Chelsea Yogurt Scotch Back

As you can see, I have no idea what is in it. I am assuming copious amounts of sugar and artificial flavoring.

Chelsea Yogurt Scotch Opened Package

The wrappers were very colorful and appealing and there is just something nice about candy that comes nicely lined up in rows. Candy in a bag is okay, but not really very grown up now, is it?

BTW, if anyone has a blog about how to take pictures without getting a shadow of yourself in the picture, please pass on the link. Or how to take pictures in general. It is painfully obvious which photos on this site come from istock.

So far so good, nice creamy color, no weird spots or foul odor. The taste was a lot like a too sweet yogurt smoothie, the kind you buy in a plastic bottle at the supermarket. Tangy, refreshing, very light body. Not sure where the scotch comes in. Maybe in the design team when they came up with the packaging.

Chelsea Yogurt Scotch Side

Yup, somebody had a wee tipple or I know less about Old Scotland than I thought I did.

But with sentiment like this on the inside, you have to love this candy. I like any candy that is nicer than I am.

Chelsea Yogurt Scotch Inside Package

Uh, yeah, ditto that.

Where are you finding these foods ? Are you a New Yorker ?

And, for God’s Sake, stop wasting your precious calories on these experiments when Giant SuperMarket has a bakery-fresh chocolate chip muffin that will put you into a state of bliss.

They do not, however, contain Scotch, or any alcohol, nor do they wish you a Happy Day or any other nicety.

Then again, they don’t need to. Mmmmmmm.

Those actually look rather tasty. Mmmmm.

Perhaps wou could score awesome free snacks by asking people to send you weird stuff from where they live. Of course, you’ll need a PO box in order to handle the vast quantities and to prevent us from stalking you too much. ;)

Sym, I am just extraordinarily good at shopping for stuff nobody needs. I am not allowed to buy more snacks, including fresh baked bakery cookies until I empty out my current stash – currently housed in a box that’s about two feet by one foot by one foot.

MajorlyOverwhelmed, um, I do not think I am so stupid to be accepting foodstuffs from the very people I poke fun of.

Are you sure those aren’t little soaps?

Every time I see that title I think it says “Cheesy Yogurt Crotch.”

I think yogurt scotch is a variation of butterscotch. That’s why my friends say I’m scary smart. ;)

Amazing how the entire package has Korean (?) writing except the come-on. There are probably alot of Scots who shop at the Asian Supermarkets and wander the aisle wistful for a small taste of home – Enter Yogurt Scotch.Yum. Right next to the Yogurt Haggis.

MurDup– None of that writing is Korean. All of it is Japanese.
Tasty candies. I just found them myself. It’s a nice treat every now and then.

scotch candy = butterscotch?
