Kit Kats in Japan. Photographs by SPENCER LOWELL. Courtesy of NY Times.

“big in japan” by tejal rao — literally had to read several passages out loud to ross. was it the candy subject matter? the focus on special flavors? the melancholy ending? i can only say, perhaps, yes.

A Kit Kat is composed of three layers of wafer and two layers of flavored cream filling, enrobed in chocolate to look like a long, skinny ingot. It connects to identical skinny ingots, and you can snap these apart from one another intact, using very little pressure, making practically no crumbs.
