Hi-Chew (ハイチュウ Haichū) is a fruit-flavored chewy Japanese candy sold by Morinaga & Company. This soft chewy candy was first released in 1975. It was re-released in its current shape (a stick of several individually wrapped candies) in February 1986. The candy actually derived from several older models. The origins of Hi-chew began when Taichiro Morinaga sought to create an edible kind of chewing gum that could be swallowed because of the Japanese cultural taboo against taking food out of one's mouth. By combining his chewy caramel with strawberry flavoring, Morinaga was able to create a new kind of candy. This led to the introduction of the candy called Chewlets in 1931. However, Morinaga had to rebuild his company after World War II, and Chewlets was reintroduced in the form it is known today- Hi-Chew. Hi-Chew candies are individually wrapped in logo-stamped foil or plain white wax paper (depending on the localization). Each individual candy piece consists of an outer white coating (this is the same for most flavors) and a colored, flavored interior. The exceptions to this rule are the Strawberry Cheesecake, Yogurt, and Cotton Candy flavors, which have an outer colored coating with a white, flavored inside, whereas the Cola flavored Hi-chews are brown colored all through. The texture is similar to a cross between chewing gum and fruit-flavored candies in the United States such as Laffy Taffy or Starburst, and they remind some of the long discontinued Bonkers. Hi-chew can be found widely in shops in Taiwan, Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Specialist shops in other countries also stock this product, including some 7-Eleven locations in the United States. *** Description sourced from Wikipedia.
