Viral Video: One might actually manage to spot a needle in the hay, but finding an Indian who has never tried and loved the popular ‘sour candy’ Hajmola sounds like an impossible task! That’s how popular Hajmola is in the country. It goes without saying that the love Desis have for it surely has a lot to do with how tangy the candy is. Experiencing the same tanginess for the first time, a video of some Japanese people reacting to tasting Hajmola went viral. The clip showed the foreigners trying quite a few candies all at once, which only elevated the ‘burst of its taste’, resulting in the ‘experimenters’ giving all kinds of ‘shocking’ reactions!
The video, after getting shared, pulled many reactions. Most people loved the reactions the Japanese gave, while the rest found them hilarious. Many also pulled jokes on the same while some wrote the ‘correct’ way of enjoying a Hajmola; ‘one at a time’.
The video was shared on Instagram, by the handle ‘koki_shishido’. The post was captioned, “India is not for beginners.” The video was shared 5 days ago and pulled more than 75K likes from people.

Taking to the comment section, people shared their take. “Nice try didddy,” a user said. “That's my fav flavour,” added a second person. “East or West India is the best,” added a third person. “Bhai try other flavours too, they are so yumm. You will get a bit of a shocker on your tongue but you will then like it,” added another.
“We eat more than 12 packs sometimes even more..btw each pack has 4 pieces of hajmola,” commented a fifth person. “You don't have to bite it......just have it in your mouth and suck it then it will taste more and that is how we Indians eat it I mean most of us,” added a sixth person.
