Why are there so many Japanese KitKat flavors?
One big reason there are so many KitKat flavors in Japan is a tradition called omiyage, where people bring home small gifts from their travels. Kit Kats, which have special flavors based on local Japanese foods, make great souvenirs from different regions of Japan.
There are also limited-time and seasonal flavors that change throughout the year, so there’s always something new to try. Some shops even sell fancy versions made by chefs.
All of this makes Japanese KitKats more than just candy—they’re a fun way to explore different places and enjoy unique, surprising tastes you can’t find anywhere else.
