    As Americans we really need to have higher standards.
    Whether rich or poor we all deserve this kind of quality from our low budget grocery stores

      We get what we expect and are willing to buy. Japan is homogenous, ultra clean, makers vs takers, low/no patience for welfare and more, they expect, then pay for this level of food. We say we want healthy then no one eats healthy so manufacturers aren't going to take a loss on making something that no one buys. We eat bigger portions and we would shop lift the heck out of a store like this. Hence, we get what we deserve.

    I would LOVE to know how cooking overseas compares (price wise, quality wise, accessibility wise) compares to eating out/street food/convenience stores. Probably a bit niche, but I would love to see Inga explore whole food cooking in the various countries she visits!

    I’m Japanese and I’m so happy that you enjoyed the food from 7-11 in Japan🥰
    Kara-age(唐-揚げ) originates from the dynasty of China(唐) and it brought to Japan in Nara era. “揚げ” means “fried” in Japanese so Kara-age(唐揚げ) literally means “fried chicken(in most cases) from China”.😂
    I know that Kara-age tastes different from Chinese fried chicken but I like both of them.☺️
    Hope you coming back to Japan soon!❤

And for breakfast, a roll of pandesal and noodles is a staple. :) i think it's just the salty-umami flavor of noodles that goes so well with unflavored bread 😊

      I'm not sure why there is the difference between the convenience stores in the US and Japan/South Korea. Perhaps it's a cultural thing? Certainly it helps that you have so many people living tightly together in Tokyo and they have the smaller living spaces so it may make more sense to buy the food pre made than to cook at home.
