Karintō

Karintō is a traditional deep-fried snack made from a yeasted dough that is shaped into sticks and then covered in brown sugar. Modern variations often use various flavorings and coat the sticks in peanuts, sesame seeds, or white sugar. The origin of karintō is not entirely clear, but it was most likely available on Japanese streets since the 1830s.
