When WOWBOX offered us a few weeks ago to take a look (and a bite) at the new version of the box full of Japanese snacks, we couldn’t say no. On one hand because we never say no to food, on the other because we really like the variety of contents of WOWBOX, which always creates a perfect balance between sweet and savoury. Let’s find out what’s new and the fantastic contest that WOWBOX has reserved for its subscribers!
