A new version of the snack debuts in Japan, with white chocolate and ocean salt: here are the instructions to transform the wrapping into turtles and dolphins (respecting the environment)
The Japanese obsession with the KitKat it is well known all over the world. Anyone who has had the opportunity to visit the country of the Rising Sun was impressed by the incredible popularity of the home-made snack Nestlé, available in dozens of different variations, ranging from the edition to matcha tea to that flavored with cherry blossoms. From great power, however, derive great responsibilities, as Spider-Man rightly reminds us since the dawn of time: and this is how Nestlé decided to take the field against the potential pollution of theenvironment precisely due to the wraps of his KitKat. First by replacing plastic packaging with a more sustainable paper material, and now with a special initiative that winks at the art of origami, reminding us of the importance of respecting our seas.
In fact, a new edition of the snack has appeared in the stores in Tokyo and its surroundings, christened Ocean Salt. Topped with white chocolate bar and added sea salt to give the right contrast between sweet and savory. But also with a very special packaging, with some of the inhabitants of the sea and that can be folded and folded on itself to give life to a series of nice origami.
On the official portal of KitKat Japan then you can find the instructions – developed by the artist Fumiaki Shingu – to be followed step by step to create one sea turtle, to a seal, to a dolphin or, again, to a manta ray. All with the aim of reminding aspiring origami masters that even an apparently harmless snack wrapper can become a real problem for nature and animals. And that it is therefore better to enhance it, transforming it into a small work of art in paper. Or, alternatively, recycling it properly.
