These sticks might look rather plain on the outside, but they actually manage to contain the ultimate combo of crunch and savouriness in neat little packages. They come in a tomato flavour, too, but we all know the original flavour is the bomb!<\/p>\n<h3>2. Koala&#8217;s March<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206600\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206600\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206600 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-koalas-march.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks koalas march\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-koalas-march.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-koalas-march-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-koalas-march-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206600\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">How do you eat your Koala\u2019s March? Head first, legs first, or whole? (Photography: Barb Watson via Flickr)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Originating in Japan, Koala\u2019s March is one of the most iconic Hong Kong snacks and is a firm favourite of Team Honeycombers to this day. Crunchy, koala-shaped (and koala-stamped!) biscuits are filled with smooth chocolate on the inside. Needless to say, these were (and still are) all the buzz among the little ones in the playground. WIth a range of flavours like strawberry chocolate and double chocolate, Koala\u2019s March also puts out unique seasonal flavours at different times during the year.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Dried shredded squid or fish<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206602\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206602\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206602 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-shredded-squid-fish.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks dried shredded squid fish\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-shredded-squid-fish.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-shredded-squid-fish-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-shredded-squid-fish-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206602\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This familiar Hong Kong snack always tastes better with a bevvy (Photography: \u7f8e\u597d\u751f\u6d3b\u767e\u8ca8 Good Life Mart via Facebook)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here\u2019s a Hong Kong snack that truly resonates with locals of all ages. Not only is this savoury treat a fave amongst children, but you\u2019ll also see adults enjoying dried shredded squid or fish with a beer in hand. And it\u2019s easy to see the appeal: flavourful fish air-dried (or roasted) to chewy goodness \u2013 what\u2019s not to love? Even if you\u2019re not a fan of seafood, we reckon you should still give this a try.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Meiji Gummy Choco<\/h3>\n<p>Also hailing from Japan, Meiji Gummy Choco is still at the top of the game today when it comes to nostalgic Hong Kong snacks. Basically a chocolate-coated chewy gummy, the most common flavours of this bite-sized treat are muscat grapes and strawberry. Trust us when we say Meiji Gummy Choco is a crowd favourite \u2013 kids (and sometimes even adults!) swamp to whoever has the tube, like bees to honey.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Mamee Noodles<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206601\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206601\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206601 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-mamee-noodles.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks mamee noodles\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-mamee-noodles.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-mamee-noodles-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-mamee-noodles-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206601\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mamee Noodles will earn you all the street cred you need on the playground (Photography: Carly Wu)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Anyone growing up in the 852 will remember Mamee Noodles and its blue mascot (whom we see as a quirky combo of Cookie Monster and Sulley from <em>Monsters, Inc<\/em>). This iconic treat is best enjoyed uncooked \u2013 and we argue it\u2019s the only way to consume it because, trust us, the cooked version is far from appetising. Simply crunch up your noods, sprinkle in the flavour pack, then shake it up thoroughly to coat the noodle bits with all the MSG goodness. Considered a \u201cforbidden\u201d Hong Kong snack by many parents due to its addictiveness, Mamee Noodles remains a source of guilty pleasure for us, even till today.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Dried plums<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206603\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206603\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206603 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-plums.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks dried plums\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-plums.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-plums-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-dried-plums-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206603\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">While children generally don\u2019t like them as much, dried plums are a staple Hong Kong snack (Photography: jreika via Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Known locally as <em>waa mui<\/em> (\u8a71\u6885), dried plums may not be the most popular amongst kids or adults, but they\u2019re definitely one of the OG snacks in Hong Kong. They have a complex flavour profile that spans from salty to sweet to sour. As such, it\u2019s usually an acquired taste and enjoyed by the older generation. That being said, its unique tanginess is surprisingly good for relieving nausea and improving the appetite, making it a household and travelling staple for many.<\/p>\n<h3>7. White Rabbit candy<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206604\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206604\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206604 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-white-rabbit-candy.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks white rabbit candy\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-white-rabbit-candy.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-white-rabbit-candy-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-white-rabbit-candy-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206604\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hailing from Shanghai, the White Rabbit candy is a well-loved Hong Kong snack (Photography: KowHhk lamaiw via Wikimedia Commons)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The White Rabbit candy is another Hong Kong snack that traverses generations. This milk candy has a creamy, taffy-like texture and comes wrapped in a thin sheet of rice paper (which is also edible, BTW). Apart from the original vanilla, exciting new flavours such as matcha, coffee, and lychee have been introduced in recent years. Many <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/hong-kong-movies-watch-classic-cantonese-movies-films\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">classic Hong Kong movies<\/a> and TV shows feature White Rabbit candy as a prop, too. So, look out for the iconic red, white, and blue wrapping during your next binge!<\/p>\n<h3>8. Haw flakes<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206605\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206605\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206605 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-haw-flakes.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks haw flakes\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-haw-flakes.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-haw-flakes-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-haw-flakes-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206605\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Despite being a snack, haw flakes are a relatively nutritious treat (Photography: Joey via Flickr)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While often administered as a sweet relief for the lingering bitterness of <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/chinese-herbal-teas-liang-cha\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>liang cha<\/em><\/a> and traditional Chinese medicine, haw flakes are also a popular snack that can be consumed on the regular. Made from Chinese hawthorn fruits, this treat usually comes as small, thin discs, wrapped in neon pink, green, and yellow packaging. Though this Hong Kong snack has not made us playground-famous, its sweet and tangy flavour has certainly got us hooked!<\/p>\n<h3>9. Ginbis Animal Biscuits<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206606\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206606\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206606 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-ginbis-animal-biscuits.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks ginbis animal biscuits\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-ginbis-animal-biscuits.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-ginbis-animal-biscuits-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-ginbis-animal-biscuits-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206606\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Whatever animal you can think of, there\u2019s probably a Ginbis Biscuit version of it!

This Japanese import just hits different from its international counterparts. Not only are these biscuits shaped like adorable animals, but each of them also comes imprinted with the animal\u2019s English name, so the little ones (and English students) can learn while they eat! Ginbis Animal Biscuits are offered in a range of flavours, but we think the seaweed is best.<\/p>\n<h3>10. Sachima<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_206607\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-206607\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-206607 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-sachima.jpg\" alt=\"hong kong snacks sachima\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-sachima.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-sachima-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/02\/hong-kong-snacks-sachima-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-206607\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sachima is the perfect Hong Kong snack: sweet but not too sweet (Photography: Lcc54613 via Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Known locally as <em>maa zai<\/em> (\u99ac\u4ed4), sachima is a sweet and chewy traditional Hong Kong snack.
