Red bean bread

This actually isn't something very special/out of the ordinary, but still probably something you wouldn't see in an American supermarket/bakery/store. You'd know what it is if you're familiar with Asian bakeries though. Very yummy stuff.

[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.

Bread chips

These were in the chips section, and have a taste like really really thinly sliced French bread with sugar and butter on top. I actually did get a bag, and it was really yummy! The only problem was, it was definitely at least 80% air... I know they do this so the chips won't be crushed or whatever, but it had more air in there than almost any other chips bag I've gotten! Even for something this delicious, it isn't worth the 140 yen for a 2/3 bag of air...

Banana bread

Banana bread isn't all that weird. My mother makes some damn good ones. And then I saw this today, and was completely caught off guard.

Yes, it's banana bread. In the shape and color of a real banana. Apparently it isn't actually made of banana, it just has banana filling on the inside. Think of it what you will.
