Kyabetsu Tarō

Kyabetsu Tarō (Japanese: キャベツ太郎, Tarō being a common Japanese male first name) is a Japanese snack food made by the Kadō (菓道) company of Ibaraki Prefecture.[1] It consists of balls of corn[2] about 3 cm in diameter flavoured with small pieces of nori and Japanese brown sauce. It is a relatively low cost snack aimed at children. It is sold in two bag sizes,[3] a 20 yen and a 100 yen bag. The package shows a frog wearing a policeman's hat. Despite the name, the snack does not list cabbage in its ingredients. Its name may be a pun on Momotaro.
