The Japanese are some of the world’s biggest purveyors of weird food. They have some strange snacks, and the latest is a Kit Kat bar with hand placed gold leaf around the chocolaty goodness. Why gold-leafed Kit Kat bars? We have no idea; perhaps the Japanese want shiny gold turds.
The Kit Kat Choclatory shops will offer these special gold leaf wrapped Kit Kats later next month. There will be only 500 sticks made and each stick is hand wrapped and costs about $16(USD).
Yes, they mean single stick, not the entire Kit Kat bar. $16 for a piece of a Kit Kat? Gimme a break amiright? The Chocolatory is also raffling off an actual 24k gold Kit Kat bar that you can’t eat, but would spend nicely.
