[Gets Everyone Hyped!] Recommended Foods for Punishment Games (1–10)
raw bitter melon
One flavor that’s perfect for a penalty game—this one focuses on bitterness, with the visual impact also being a highlight.
Without any cooking processes to reduce the bitterness of goya (bitter melon), have them aim to finish it raw.
While explaining which parts of the goya are especially bitter, make them carry out the penalty.
Take your time watching them bite into a large bitter melon and struggle with the bitterness.
Since it’s extremely bitter, finishing it will be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s recommended to stop them at a point where you judge they’ve suffered enough.
Haribo Schnecken
Another product that became a hot topic after HIKAKIN featured it on his YouTube channel is Haribo Schnecken.
These are gummies that look like coiled spirals.
The package shows a boy riding a bicycle with gummy tires, and people say the taste is tire-like as well.
Opinions may vary on the flavor, but it’s definitely an acquired taste.
Try it at least once.
By the way, “Schnecken” means “snails.”
beetle (specifically, a rhinoceros beetle)
When it comes to foods for punishment games, the appearance—so off-putting you hesitate to put it in your mouth—is a key point.
With that in mind, let’s incorporate a rhinoceros beetle into the punishment game, since it makes a striking visual impact.
It’s a bug that’s popular with kids, so it doesn’t necessarily provoke disgust, but its distinct, clearly recognizable shape is a hallmark of the rhinoceros beetle.
While it’s important to have them describe the flavor in detail, the size is the beetle’s standout feature, so it’s recommended to have them pay attention to how the texture changes as they continue eating.

Habanero Reverse Russian Roulette Chocolate
When it comes to food-related penalty games, super spicy is an essential element.
The reverse Russian roulette chocolates are a set of ten chocolates in which the majority are extremely spicy.
If you use them as a combined game-and-punishment item, you can probably finish the game quickly and easily.
Also, if you let the person receiving the penalty choose the chocolate, giving them a chance to avoid the pain, it adds another layer of fun to watching the punishment unfold.
It might also be interesting to have them keep eating until they manage to avoid the super spicy one.
Genghis Khan Caramel
This is a snack developed from a bold concept that fuses Genghis Khan—Hokkaido’s local grilled mutton dish—with caramel, a classic treat loved by people of all ages.
It was originally sold only in Hokkaido, but thanks in part to shops like Village Vanguard carrying it, its name recognition spread nationwide.
Another key point is that it looks almost exactly like regular caramels, lulling penalty-game targets into a false sense of security.
Within the caramel’s sweetness is a distinctive flavor with hints of garlic and green onion—subtly not tasty—making it an ideal entry-level item for penalty games.
Super-spicy cream puff
How about a punishment game using extra-spicy cream puffs? More and more restaurants and karaoke places are offering them, right? The truth is, you can easily make them at home.
First, buy some small cream puffs.
Then just inject your own original filling inside—that’s it.
Try making a sauce you like, such as wasabi or spicy mustard, and give it a go.
Being able to customize the flavor however you like is one of the unique charms of extra-spicy cream puffs.
Just be careful—not to use anything excessively spicy, as it can be dangerous.
Extremely spicy Kaki no Tane
Kaki no Tane is a snack everyone knows.
The spicy kick of the rice crackers and the salty peanuts make a perfect pairing.
Did you know there’s an extra-spicy version of Kaki no Tane? Some products are said to be 50 times hotter than the regular kind.
What’s more, they don’t include peanuts, so there’s barely any chance to take a break.
There are also various other highly spicy products available, so be sure to check them out.
With these, you can not only enjoy them as usual, but also use them for a roulette-style game.
