Do you know that there are breads in Japan that make you smarter? This magical bread’s name is Zuno Pan, in English brain bread.

This bread is not a fishy thing, a more scientific product.

According to this book, eating more vitamin B1 helps you having a better memory and thinking process.

Not only good for your brain

When we visited Tokyo University, we bought this legendary bread with cream & crunchy chocolate. It looked like a hot dog bun with chocolate cream. Other versions like peanuts butter cream were also available.

The bread is very soft, this is just a personal preference, more cream would be better, but the combination with crunchy chocolate is good. We were not sure, if our brain became better than before, but it costs only around 130 yen, ideal as a snack for students! It is also easy on the portemonnaie!
