The snack that RIIZE likes the most is cassava chips. Sungchan said that in Korea, cassava chips are known for dieting, but in Indonesia, fried cassava cannot be used for a diet snack.

Anton finally dared to be the first member to eat jengkol crackers. At first, it tasted good but the smell was very strong in the end, to the point that Seunghan couldn't bear the smell.
