Shrimp Crackers, or cute name Krupuk


Krupuk, keropok or merely crackers, if you wish to call it. So colorful and pretty isn't it ?


For me, I like shrimp crackers and the Melinjo version (slightly bitter) of crackers. It is a childhood snack for some of us, isn't it ? :D

What is your favorite childhood snack?

  2. Oooooh yes! Keropok, krupuk or kroepoek and even krepek (?) The 'kruuuk' and 'kraaak' sounds it made :D I think without them, any meals are incomplete!

    I like most crackers but the most I favoured are the Melinjo, Shrimp and Fish. I like to dip them in sambal belacan and sambal oelek.

  4. These look interesting! I usually see these in just only solid colors, but these have color in the edges instead! Very cool.

  14. Shrimp or fish crackers are fine w/ me. But they come in one color, either all white or yellowish. These have pastel color lining. Cute, yes. There's Kropek (a brand of shrimp crackers) in our country w/c has been around since the 1960s I guess. Never changed their logo nor packaging as far as I know.

  17. That looks like a great snack. I used to love a popcorn snack that had the kernel's hull removed. Less crunchy than regular popcorn but delicious.

  21. I love shrimp crackers. The ones in your pics are really nice, I've never seen them with two colors in them. The one's I see are either pink or greenish blue.

    My favorite childhood snack is poutine (some may argue that it is more of a meal). Basically it is fries with gravy and cheese curds.

  23. We call it kropek here. That's a snack I enjoy as well. I like the pretty colors.

    I love banana cue, a local snack.

  24. I lived in Indonesia for 2 years when I was little - but I didn't like krupuk then! I would like to have some now, though...

  25. I love keropok belinjau or melinjo or belinjo whatever other names are out there. Somehow that bitter taste makes it so much better right? Sadly, they dont have it here. Used to though and then nada! :(
