Conbini Addict: New Kit Kat flavors!  First of all, CHEESE!!!  What more can I say about that?

Yesterday was college entrance exams day, and high school students all over the country were reaching the climax of their whole secondary education.  To commemorate the occasion, Kit Kat released their special “College Potato” flavor, featuring a student in uniform studying on the package.  It’s fairly common practice for students to buy/eat Kit Kats (pronounced “Kitto Katto” in Japanese) on exam days for good luck because the name sounds almost the same as “Kitto katsu” which means “definite victory.”  The individual packages came with cheers like “Fight!” “We’re rooting for you!” and “You’re really giving it your all!” written on the front, and a blank space on the back for you to write your own message.
