You know when you think up something as a joke,

and then realise it could actually be a good idea?

Last year, KitKat Japan came up with an April Fool's

and then presumably a few days later, someone at Nestle thought,

"wait a minute, this could actually work."

Almost a year later, the crazy fools have only gone and done it -

in only one shop in the whole of Japan, called 'KitKat Chocolatory'.

Lots of people asked me to make a video about it, and I'm pleased to report,

we were actually able to get a hold of some,

after lots of queueing early in the morning.

If you're wondering if this is sponsored  by KitKat, by the way,

Although it should be, because to get this,

It's kind of like a 'special gift' you get.

Only a few dozen customers per day are eligible to get hold of one.

It's wrapped in this rather elegant bamboo leaf,

because bamboo leaves are actually good preservatives,

And if you're wondering what we spent ¥3000 on in a KitKat shop,

you'll be impressed at some of the stuff --

There's 'Champaign Raspberry KitKat' in this nice little box.

We've got this KitKat Chocolatory 'I ♡ Fruits' box,

which is filled with little-- lots of different varieties of flavours.

And then we've got 'Chocolatory Sublime',

But they're just as impressive as the Sushi KitKats, as far as I'm concerned.

And you need to go to a special KitKat chocolate shop to be able to get them.

I must admit, I can't help but think this would work outside of Japan.

It's really annoying! Why do only sell this stuff in Japan?

So there we have it - three KitKat sushis.

So this one here is modelled on 'maguro', or tuna sushi,

and it's got raspberry KitKat with white chocolate rice underneath. Like a Rice Krispie.

This one here is sea urchin, and it uses Hokkaido melon and mascarpone cheese-flavour KitKats

And the third and last one is modelled on 'tamagoyaki', which is egg,

and it uses a pumpkin-flavoured KitKat, and again,

with the white chocolate Rice Krispies underneath.

To put things in perspective, here's some real tuna sushi,

And as you can see, they're basically the same, there's no difference (sarcasm).

And there's something about seaweed  and chocolate

It also, it's a bit-- it looks like it's going to be a bit awkward to eat,

take it, dip it in soy sauce, and off you go. You know.

Don't know if it's a good idea eating sushi, just before eating KitKat 'sushi'.

It's actually about the same size  as a normal 'nigirizushi'.

with white chocolate, kind of, Krispies, and wasabi.

That actually worked quite well. That was quite nice.

Raspberry KitKat - nice sharp, fruity taste with the white chocolate.

Alright, let's be a little bit more daring,

and go for the mascarpone cheese and Hokkaido melon.

For reasons I can't explain the seaweed-- the taste of the seaweed

goes pretty well with the taste of the melon.

To my surprise, I prefer that one to the raspberry one.

I don't even like melon, so I don't know why like that.

The second one - the mascarpone cheese and melon - 9/10.

And now we've got the last one - the tamagoyaki egg one -

I didn't taste any wasabi, though, in either of those,

so let's see if there's any difference here.
