what country is it made in

The seller is based in Osaka, Japan. The kelp was harvested in Hokkaido, Japan, so I assume it was dried, shredded, and made into an edible form in some facility in Hokkaido.

Is this ready to serve? Do we need to cook it before eating?

It is ready to eat. I mixed with vegetables and make a good cold dish

what are the ingredients?

Ingredients. Kelp (Hokkaido), soy sauce (containing soybeans and wheat), salt, processed soy sauce (containing soybeans and wheat), protein hydrolysate (containing soybeans)/seasoning (amino acids, etc.), sweetener (sorbitol, licorice), polysaccharide thickener

Does Kurakon commercial salt kelp contain any iodine?

Iodine is not listed. Kelp, soy sauce, salt, caramel (?), and MSG is listed. I use this product all the time but first time for me to check. Thank you!
