Country Ma'am Yaki Imo Review

Japanese Food Review #69

First off, yes, it's hilarious that this is the 69th review. Secondly, we're all super excited about the conclusion of "Potato Dessert Challenge Week." I'm sure you remember that Haagen-Daz Murasaki Imo received an outstanding 8.5 overall rating. How will Country Ma'am's entrant fare? You'll have to look a couple of inches below to find out! It's no secret that I enjoy a good Country Ma'am cookie. This is one of their autumn limited edition flavors. Yaki imo literally means "cooked potato," but actually they're baked sweet potatoes. Again, the cookies really did taste like sweet potatoes. The package has instructions for heating the cookies in the microwave or toaster oven. I ignored this and ate them at room temperature. I apologize if this unfairly affected the results.

Ratings:
Gaybot: 7.5  They were quite good, but they didn't feel as unique as the ice cream.
Girlbot: 6  She says they were good but not great. She also said eating them made here think, "Fall has arrived."
Overall: 6.75

A  valiant effort by Country Ma'am, but in the end, Haagen-Daz was just too much for Japanese cookie makers.
