THE RECORD

identity

IKEA describes a crisp exterior and a moist interior. Four-ball sides and a child meal with jelly are listed separately, so a smaller order is not assumed to contain the full eight-ball plate’s accompaniments. [1] [2]

THE RECORD

history

IKEA Japan dates falafel’s addition to March 2026, without an exact launch day. The eight-ball aioli-and-couscous plate appeared in its July announcement, followed by a different listed price in the October Tokyo-Bay check. [3] [2]

THE RECORD

nutrition

The table is per 100 grams, not a total for eight balls or a complete plate. Apple, chicken, egg, gelatin, milk, soy and wheat are explicitly declared. Factory-handled allergens form a separate category; kitchen cross-contact remains possible, and pistachio and macadamia status is unconfirmed. [1]

THE RECORD

prices

The table separates the eight-ball meal, four-ball side and children’s meal with jelly. The child offer is for ages twelve and under, with no verified ball count. July’s national announcement and the later Tokyo-Bay listing are separate price observations, without an exact change date. [2] [3]

THE RECORD

distinctions

A chickpea description does not settle the dietary status of this entire meal. The Japanese product panel explicitly lists chicken and gelatin among its allergens or declared ingredients, alongside egg and milk. We preserve that operator statement without guessing which sauce or component accounts for it. The Norway publicity photograph shows an IKEA falafel, not the Japanese plated meal; it establishes neither the couscous portion nor the Japanese recipe. [1] [4]
