Welcome to Season 3, Episode 47. We’re
back with more Iconic Asian Candies! Candies from Asia can be an
item of pride for Asian American kids, and more and more of these
candies are available across the world. In this installment of The
History of Iconic Asian Candies, we’re talking about Haw Flakes and
HI-CHEW. Haw Flakes might not be as well known, but they’re an
important candy for Chinese Americans and many Asian American kids.
However, HI-CHEW are a global phenomena from Morinaga Company. In
our recurring segment, we talk about another Obscure Asian Comic
Book Character with the DC villain Cheshire. Find out her origin
