Dark Snacks (闇菓子, Yamigashi) are Granute snacks produced by Stomach Inc. and flavored with the happiness of captured humans. Granutes are rewarded with Dark Snacks in exchange for procuring Human Press.
Overview[]
Dark Snacks are gelatinous and chewy cubes, similar to gummy candy.
According to Granute Chooul description, Dark Snacks taste sweet, along with several stimulating flavors that filled the consumer's body and heart with ecstasy. They are shown to be extremely appetizing and addicting to Granutes, and once a Granute consumes even one piece, they are unable to stop craving it and demand more.
During the manufacturing process of Dark Snacks, happiness is extracted from Human Presses as used for flavoring. The happier a human was when captured, the more delicious the resulting Dark Snack will taste. As a result, the quality of Human Presses submitted will determine the number of Dark Snacks the part-time workers can exchanged from the Agents. Four low-quality Human Presses are together only worth a single Dark Snack, while higher-quality ones are worth a Dark Snack each. Agents may also promise Dark Snacks in return for accomplishing other tasks.
Dark Snacks are an illegal product sold in the Granute world's black market. Stomach Inc. intends to use the addictive properties of the Dark Snacks to control their world.
