There's a new Japanese variety store just opened nearby and I ventured inside to take a look what kind of interesting stuff they would have... 
They seemed to have a good variety of items ranging from pet items, household items, stationery, cosmetics, and food/drinks in a not so big of a store... 
In the food section, I saw in almost any kind of snacks available there would be a typical matcha or Japanese green tea flavor. There was some matcha kitkats, matcha-flavored candy, cookies, crackers, and some matcha drinks as well... 
I didn't get carried away at all and only bought the biscuit sticks and drink powder sachets to try out. They're not too bad, but I wouldn't have too much of them at once. Just having two of them together was enough to turn me all green...

Is it like a Daiso store - everything is $1.50 - we have some of those here. :)
Matcha is super trendy, but I have never liked it. I do want to try the Pocky!

Yeah, my sister mentioned Daiso might be similar when I sent her a video of me walking around the store... USD 1.50 would be around AUD 2... Oh, then I believe the stuff are more expensive down here since I think most items are around AUD 3 and the cosmetics are even more expensive.
I'd recommend the Pocky more than the powder drink... It's just super green...

@infatuatedbby What have you bought there? I saw the stationery range had some cute designs that I wouldn't find in just a regular office supply store. But I had more will power to just look around than you so I didn't buy anything except the Pocky and the matcha powder drink...

This is the first time I read about Matcha and did some search. They are talking about it as though it is elixir
The health benefits of matcha tea exceed those of green tea because when you drink matcha you ingest the whole leaf, not just the brewed water. One cup of

We love shopping in the Japanese Supermarket when we go to the city.
