Yamazaki Curry Rusk Pack

As a spinoff of their Lunch Pack series, Yamazaki is now offering flavored, hard rusk bread made from bread crust. This variety is a collaboration with a CoCo Ichibaya, a popular chain of curry restaurants, and is not surprisingly curry flavored. The packaging looks similar to that for the Lunch Pack sandwiches. I personally like seeing bread crust being made use of because in Japan crust is typically cut off and presumably wasted. ヤマザキ ちょいパクラスク

Burger King's BK Acai

Burger King is selling items from a BK Acai series which features acai imported from Brazil. Acai is touted as a superfruit containing fiber, polyphenols, calcium, iron, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. The offerings include the BD Acai Sparkling (carbonated drink), the BK Acai Milk, and the BK Acai Bowl (looks like acai on a granola and yogurt bowl). バーガーキング
