Notes[edit]

Schnauz's notes[edit]

This treasure takes a sophisticated palate to appreciate. First, a salty- sweet sauce is put atop some kind of white foodstuff. It's then fried and topped with a thin black layer of... paper? It sounds awful, but it tastes wonderful. Surprising in the best way!

Olimar's notes[edit]

It's sweet...but not too sweet. Salty... but not overly so. It tastes like something a more refined palate would appreciate. Perhaps belonging to someone whose tastes were developed over the course of many years.

Louie's notes[edit]

A crunchy and uncomplicated treat.
