It’s been a bit of a sad story the last couple of weeks. End of WWII.

There seems to be a consensus that because I’m American, my opinions about food are invalid. Fam, I’ve eaten raw horse, milt, sea urchin, etc. but the moment I criticize a konbini sandwich, I’m a tasteless Neanderthal who doesn’t deserve to be in Japan. It’s honestly comical. 🤣

Chocomint ice cream is the GOAT, I love it! But that sandwich looks so unappetizing. I’d try a bite just to say I tried it, but I can’t fathom the taste being anything other than fake mint, processed, oily chocolate and refrigerated konbini sandwich bread. My taste buds KNOW. 😂

Oh no! I must’ve missed that one, were they absolutely feral in the comments?!

The comments on TT are not so bad but on Insta they are savage. I’ve blocked three people already. 🙃

Like, really? Over a convenience store sandwich? People cursing me out, telling me to get out of Japan, saying I disrespect the culture? Y’all, please.

🍛 Fun Fact: Every Friday, Japan’s Maritime Self-Defense Force still serves curry rice—a tradition dating back over a century!
What’s your favorite Japanese curry style? 🍛 Comment below! ⬇ You know mine is Kanazawa curry, but I may be biased. 😉

Unlike Indian curry, Japanese curry uses roux to create a mild, stew-like texture. Curry became a household favorite, served with rice, udon, or even bread! The Japanese Navy adopted curry as a nutritious meal, leading to its popularity nationwide.
