This the first time I am also going to throw out a recipe and a review of a snack food product at the same time.

Onto the review:

In a 60g bag of this snack food item you got a WHOLE lot of 1-2 inch pieces of karinto. There was a little bit of a curve to each small piece.

The color of each piece looked alot like brown sugar. You could not tell from looking at one of them if it had any habanero seasoning on it.

The taste to them was perfect. This was the first time I have tasted sweet and spicy in a snack food product. BIG THUMBS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The heat level to them was not that hot at all. The more you had in your mouth the spicier it was. Has a nice lite aftertaste to them.

In the end I am going to give this snackfood product A BIG THUMBS UP. If you can find some, pick up a bag!!!

I am almost done tasting everything from my mail order folks.

To make some Karinto at home try out this recipe
