  1. Rice cracker and bean snack mix. すなっくみっくす おつまみ (lit. snack mix snack).

    That specific snack is made for ANA, so you aren’t likely to find it for sale. You can probably find something similar anywhere that sells Japanese snacks.

  2. You can find similar “otsumami” kakinotane and bean and senbei mixes ANYWHERE in Japan, or online, or at any Asian market around the world.

  3. The general name for it is “arare”. Some of the different shapes and types are more popular and can be purchased on their own. You can buy mixed arare like [this one](https://www.amazon.com/Enjoy-Mixed-Arare-Crackers-Ounce/dp/B00TQDKJ4O) (never tried this brand so can’t vouch for it) , or specific shapes/styles like you see on that page. Some popular types are kaki no tane, nori maki, and sakura arare. If you have any Japanese markets by you they should have a large selection of arare and senbei, I believe H-Mart carries some, otherwise you’ll have to buy online.
