Savory mochi is usually served hot as a breakfast food with a topping of soy sauce or miso, and mochi is also included in 'stews' and soups. Neither of those particularly float my boat. It's sort of like eating a Dacron pillow with flavor on top.

Thank you for explaining, Stitchawl.
The strawberry one looks good, but will never replace my chocolate.
