    Essentially, Japanese convenience stores are like mini supermarkets and not just a place to buy potato chips, canned sodas, and candy bars.

    Thank you for this tour! We are looking forward to our upcoming trip to Japan. It will be our 9th trip! We only "discovered" Japan as a vacation spot in 2014. Obviously, we became "addicted!" Although I am Japanese-American, I do not know any Japanese language. Neither do my parents. I LOVE ALL of your videos. BTW, BUGLES are an American corn snack shaped like cones. Kids put them on their fingers to create long nails!

    I was specifically watching to see the tea selection, lol.. You two hit a home run with that. You even mentioned "no sugar" and that's my style. Great video.

    I saw a travel vlogger who traveled to Japan she filmed a 711 food vlog I couldn't believe how much food and snacks they had so different than any 711 I've been in. I would be so confused what to choose not being familiar with Japanese snacks and foods sweet potatoe is my favorite I'm from the south we love sweet potato especially during the fall and winter holidays. I love those rice balls I love the salmon one Hawaiian food is similar they make I similar version of rice balls so good.

    Yeah, we can see how it would be overwhelming to choose from so many different snacks and drinks. The sweet potato in Japan tastes really different from the US, but it's soooo good!
