I miss conbini breakfasts. Getting a breakfast wrap and latte for nearly $20 is just lunacy.

Conbini review: 激辛チータラ

This was pretty good (if you like the amalgam of fish and cheese that is チータラ). But it was not 激辛　(super spicy🌶️). It was pleasant heat that lingered on the backend.

7 / 10
Dinged for small portion size, overpromising on heat.

Catching up with emails and the Conbini Boys newsletter is now on my shitlist for calling the FamilyMart pizza-flavored-potato-chip-flavored pizza "inbred". It may not be much to look at but the very idea has my perverse palette drooling. #conbini #jfood #food https://conbiniboys.substack.com/p/the-chiki-wars-peak

Sometimes you walk into a konbini and walk out with a bag of items you never expected to buy.

@chadkoh Haha, it's so much slower to peel an orange than to break open plastic! I loved the treats at the #conbini in Japan like boiled, peeled eggs and tiny stacks of pancakes for $1 as a hosteller. Hated all of the single-use plastic, though!

My review of the new Sweet Potato Sandwich sold now at #7-11:

Imagine sinking your teeth into a cumulus cloud. Silky, chilled sweet potato mash perfectly complimented by a hefty dollop of (non sweetened) fluffed cream; white bread adds a pleasant chewy wrapping that holds it all together until the airy magic disappears.

👍 👍
