Is this true or just another case of thing, thing japan
>>22266652Thing, thing JapanThey're good, I've had them, but it's nothing to particularly write home about. Bourdain just tried to make everything seem mystical and profound.

>>22266667this. I've had them in Japan for what was it like under $2? at that price it makes sense. but they sell for like $4.50 here.
>>22266652the target audience for convenience stores in japan is literally everyone, they're clean and literally everywhere so people of all walks of life go in there to get something to eat cus they're so busy7-11 in the US is pretty much only frequented by addicts and the utter dregs of society, the workers rarely speak english and look utterly miserable like they're all indentured dubai slaves that haven't slept in days, outside of dense urban cores, you have to drive to go to one and if you can drive, you can go to a real store that sells real food and not the day old overpriced shit 7-11 calls "food"
>>22266652Basically when you're big in Japan tonight, big in Japan be tight, big in Japan ooh the eastern sea's so blue.
>>22266830This. When I was a degenerate addict and alcoholic I would walk to nearby 7/11 at 2 or 3 in the morning for late night munchies. There were always prostitutes and pimps and other unsavory characters loitering in the parking lot doing their business. A few times I went in so fucked up I didn't remember and the clerks would laugh at me the next I went in and make a snide remark like "you had fun night yesterday, boss, hahaha". Once I went after drinking and eating an eighth of shrooms completely blacked out and had no idea I even went to 7/11 that night. The Indian clerk laughed his ass off at me the next time I went and was trying to tell me how big my pupils were and how fucked up and unable to talk and walk properly I was. He demonstrated a zombie shuffle and opened his eyes as wide as they would go like the classic clingy gf meme and started moaning and shuffling around like a zombie. I was very embarrassed. Oh yeah, a few people were killed in the parking lot of that 7/11 over the years I was going there. And on the ground outside the store I found a bag with a few Vicodin and another time I found a bag with a bunch of Klonopin and an OC 80. I threw the OC 80 away because I was scared of ODing but I did the Vics and Kpins. This was like 20 years ago so I didn't worry about fake pressed pills or fent contamination. Ground scores used to be good finds. Now I wouldn't trust anything I found.
>>222666527 eleven here tried to sell these. Marketed them with road signs like they were some incredible thing. The ad looked disgusting.
It's like famichiki where it's good but nothing truly amazing. Better than in the states but then people use 7/11 in japan the way people here use grocery stores so it better be better than one of our gas stations.
>>22266652don't worry soon jap land will have lots of pajeets then there will no longer be Thing japan it will be think indian just like the rest of the world and it's shit teir items :)
>>22266652It's better than what you'd find in an American gas station, but that's not saying much
>>22266652I don't like egg salad, and I don't think Japanese egg salad would change my opinion on that.
>>22266652Why would I ever have an egg salad sandwich from anywhere?
>>22266652"Thing, Japan" is just Americans discovering that other countries exist and the people there have actual standards.
>>22266652nips put msg in it
>>22267121>egg sandwich >:|>egg sandwich with egg :D
>>22266652what's the quality difference? does the japanese egg salad contain eggs rather than Eggs™? is the bread free of HFCS and synthetic protein agglomerates? during assembly, was the sandwich not finger fucked by a mystery meat minority with hepatitis and multiple criminal convictions?
>>22266853God damn what a read

Weebs who come here act like these crust cut-off child sandwiches are the second coming of Escoffier. They're OK. nothing more.

>>22266853I have a similar experience but with q White Castle on the corner where I used to catch the bus.
>>22266853lol haha that's funny but clerks don't really remember you when you go in shitfaced, right? they see all sorts of people, there's no way they'd remember you haha
>>22266673thats because japan is a poor country now. in bong land my petrol station sells an egg salad sandwich for £4, looks like an in-between of op's pic but more chopped up egg. a rip off but its a petrol station, thats expected.
>>22266673The ones over here aren't even good
>>22266990had it with cress? thats the classic english egg salad
