Life information magazine "Orange Page" announces new products to watch in 2019. All 50 items are introduced in "Orange Page 1/2" (released on December 17th) as "Lifestyle Hit Product Award 2019".

First of all, the editorial department picks up 510 notable products that were newly released or renewed from August 2018 to 2019. Among them, 1,085 Orange Page Monitor members voted for "what they were interested in" and "what they actually purchased." We select the products with the highest points earned in each category. There are four types of departments: "Delicious Department", "Beauty Department", "Healthy Department", and "Rakı Housework Department".

In the "delicious section", we have a lineup of products that meet diversifying food needs, such as "short-time cooking" and "individual meals," which have been accelerating in recent years. Perhaps due to the impact of the consumption tax hike, products that make us feel the high demand for home-drinking, such as authentic lemon sour, have also become popular. An example is as follows.

■ Lawson "Basque (Basque-style cheese cake)"


"Basque-style cheese cake" has become popular in recent years for its dark caramelized aroma and creamy, rich cheese feel. Lawson's "Basque" has exceeded 1 million units in the three days since its release, and a total of more than 31 million units have been sold.

■ Tablemark "Mini Pack Sanuki Udon"


Frozen udon noodles with about 1/2 of the usual size and 100g (3.53oz) individually wrapped. It was developed in response to the voice that "I want half the size of udon noodles". You can use it in various ways according to the amount you want to eat and the scene.

■ Suntory Spirits "Lemon Sour of Discerning Bar"


A blend of "soaked liquor", which is made by soaking whole lemon, and multiple raw liquors. It is a "shop-like" lemon sour that you can feel the flavor of lemon and the taste of sake.

In the "Rakı Housework Division", many products with functions that are likely to promote "labor saving in housework" were selected. Many detergent products specializing in "smell" have appeared. Perhaps because of the unstable climate such as long rains, the readers' response was high. As for home appliances, interest was focused on new products equipped with surprisingly convenient functions. An example is as follows.

■ Kao "Attack ZERO One Hand Push"


Contains a unique cleaning base "Bio IOS". It has the characteristics of high detergency and resistance to adsorption to the fibers themselves, and is effective against dirt and dry odors that are difficult to remove. Bottles that can be weighed with one hand are also popular.

■ Panasonic "Steam Microwave Oven" Bistro "NE-BS2600"


"Bistro"'s first wireless LAN compatible model. Supports "menu" selection and "cooking preparation" in cooperation with the dedicated app. Attention was focused on the function that updates the eating habits.

A number of notable products that respond to changes in society and make everyday life fun and comfortable. How about using it as a reference for shopping during the year-end and New Year holidays?
