The snack box is priced at $19.99 and contains an array of snacks alongside a drink, which is perfect for curious foodies to pick up as a way to try out Japanese products without having to take a trip. The product will make its way to all of Giant Foods' 164 locations starting June 1, 2024 to make it the perfect option to try out as the weather changes.
