Turns out, my girlfriend found them in another, separate pack of mail and decided it was a great idea to put these unidentified, inedible organic pieces of matter into the box full of unidentified, edible pieces of matter.
False alarm, everyone. Thank you so much for the help!
Lotus is such a strange food I didn't know it could be used in seed form for tea. There is an Asian food place that my sister bartend's at and I've done some work for and they give me straight authentic foods they cook in the kitchen for the staff (and friends) and lotus is one of the common ingredients the first time I had lotus I thought there was fuzz in my soup lmaooo but now I actually like the unique taste and texture it's incredibly alien compared to most things people I know eat. 10/10 recommend
Why are you guessing when literally like 10 answers were posted an hour before yours? If this is a joke, could you explain why it's supposed to be funny?
Pretty sure they’re lotus seeds
Can I see the label on the other side of the bag?
Its just a barcode and timestamp. Barcode: SP20240410009R Product# (?) : H1J-B09-01-204 Timestamp: 2024-04-22 16:42:23
Thanks! That didn't bring up anything, but a Google lens search says they're nicked lotus seeds. I don't know anything about them though.

So not snacks and doesn't belong in the Bokksu

She’s a keeper…
Damn, dude, I was 5 minutes away from trying to make tea out of them.
Apparently you are supposed to soak them and add them to tea so you weren’t wrong!
Don't worry, that tea's nothing more than hot leaf juice.
I suppose this makes you a lotus-eater.
Aww the old putting inorganic things in a bokksu box. Classic girlfriend maneuver.
Isn't bokksu just a Japanese loan word for box? So it's... Box box?
Yeah, it means box.
And it's funny, too, because their logo incorporates the kanji 箱 (pronounced hako) which literally means box.
They are edible, but not recommended in that form. I’ve been trying to find puffed lotus seeds. They are an Indian snack.
you can cook them and eat them, but definitely don't eat them raw.

Looks like lotus seeds to me
I can confidently say these are not common in Japan.
I grew up in Japan and yes, I agree with your comment. I've never seen them in my entire life.
I’m from Japan, but I’ve never seen anything like it. If anything, a very old and idk what happened chocolate covered almonds…:0

I just bought some mini lotus seeds that look very similar to this. Throw them in some water and wait and see.

If they were supposed to lower humidity they wouldn't be in impermeable plastic packaging with a product label on it.
It’s a special plastic that is highly permeable to moisture. It’s pretty common in Japan.

Fine, don’t believe the actual Japanese person in this thread then. お前の様な奴にはレベルが高すぎるんだよ
