Curated Tumblr

I should say that as an American, I don't often have access to rice balls and they're just a bit too inconvenient to make myself. But also yeah, convenience store sandwiches are infamously mediocre here unless you go somewhere like sheetz or wawa (two Pennsylvania based convenience store chains notorious for actually having good food). I did find that breakfast sandwiches were fine before I became a pescatarian, but it's hard to screw up a frozen sausage and egg croissant.

The other big thing about Japanese conbis was that I didn't feel like I was getting absolutely cheated on price. Where I grew up you only eat at a convenience store because you're on the road and in a rush.
