Mayo Beef
As if just plane mayo isn't enough, they had to make it "mayo beef". Well, it's from the same brand as the other weird chips, so I guess this is just one more to add.

[Review] Beef Curry Pan
Came across this today, and it just looked amazing delicious. I have, surprisingly, never had one before, so I thought this was a good chance to try it since the onigiri I normally get wasn't there.

The bread was nice and soft and the curry wasn't spicy, which is good for me because I'm horrible at spicy food. And it had a decent curry taste. It wasn't too strong, but you could definitely tell it was curry. Which is, of course, a good thing.
My only problems were that the bread was too thick and there wasn't enough curry, and that I couldn't tell if there was actually any beef in there. It might've just been beef-flavored, and not contain any beef at all.

But it was worth the 105yen.

[Review] Beef tongue chips
I also got a bag of the beef tongue chips. The first impression I had of it was that there was a lot of pepper. I could smell it when I opened the bag, and I could see all the pepper sprinkled in with the chips.
The taste was definitely a lot stronger than the sakura chips, if mostly just the pepper. I could taste a bit of beef tongue every now and then. It's the BBQ kind, not the kind of beef tongue you would find in Western Chinese restaurants that come in steak-like form (which I personally find to be delicious). It was a bit too salty for my taste, and the pepper added to that effect too. I finished the bag, but by the end I felt like I was drowning in salt.
I might not eat this more than once either, but I liked it more than the sakura chips. This one at least had a discernible taste.

Beef stew
Japanese conbini's aren't just about the quick grab of some random snack to keep you over til your next meal. You can get that meal right there. And they'll heat it up for you! Yay! While I've known this wonderful fact for a while, this is the first time I've seen this on the shelves.

It's a bowl of beef stew. I was actually kind of surprised to find this at the conbini. It just never seemed like something so liquidy would be sold. I've always just seen rice and noodles with sides of katsu or something, but never actual stew. It looks pretty good too...
