Yogurt Candy Review: Meiji Yoglet


Fro-yo girl here. Meiji, the Japanese maker of Chelsea Yogurt Scotch candy, also has another yogurt candy. I’m not sure what it’s called because the name on the box is in Japanese and the back calls it Japanese Cookie (Yoglet). The shelf tag calls the candy, Yoguret Tablet. Tablet is a more accurate description than cookie.

The yogurt tablets come individually sealed in the same type of packaging used for cold medication and Chiclets. You pop the candy out from the back through the foil. Each box comes with 18 tablets. Each tablet is the size of a penny.


The candy is hard, firm and smooth, like SweeTarts. They have a powdery, yogurt taste, tangy. It dissolves in your mouth.There’s something about the candy that makes me think of Flintstones vitamins. It tastes more like a vitamin than a candy.

Ingredients: sugar, condensed yogurt powder, vegetable oil, agar agar, bifidus, citric acid, calcium, yogurt flavor, emulsifier.

A box of 18 Yoglet tablets is $1.99 at Nijiya Market.

3 out of 5 stars.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
