My adult daughter & I went to Japan for 9 days & we only ate from the convenience stores. I watched a lot of KZbin videos before I went. I had a long list of food to try. OMG, the food was so so so fantastic. Reasonable prices. Egg sandwiches to die for. Gold Margherita frozen pizza was awesome. We are the onigiris everyday. Ice cream & parfait for breakfast. Chicken giblets, octopus pieces, tongue, cured meats, steamed buns at the counter. Almost everything was so tasty & good.We are going back just for the food at convenience stores. Sooooooo good 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Wow, sounds like you had an amazing time during your last trip. Yes, it is very easy to eat at convenience stores everyday. 😂 Be sure to check out my other convenience store episodes to give you some ideas for more foods to try.

I ❤the Calbee snacks. When my family make an order with Weee I always get at least 10 bags of Calbee various flavors. I love the butter flavor 🥰

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Yes, I too love Calbee snacks. Thanks so much for watching!

[@royblaset7772]

I mostly visit Japan with a good friend and his 7eleven thing he gets once we dropped of our bags at the hotel is the perfectly boiled egg they sell, for me it's the strawberry sando which is always the first thing i eat ;-)

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I love the strawberry sando too! Thanks so much for watching and your comment!

[@chrisburrows9758]

I will be arriving late to my hotel when I arrive in Japan and luckily there are 3 Convivence stores really close to my Hotel so I can grab something good to eat.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

We arrived after midnight to our hotel. Walking from the train station to the hotel, I stopped by convenience store to grab egg salad sandwich and onigiri...lol. Enjoy!

[@hackoffice1773]

麺の食べ方が私より上手！！ コンビニの赤いきつねは2枚入りなんだね 普通のやつは1枚入りで税込140円くらい？なのをよく見ます。 2枚入り買いに行ってくる！

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

@hackoffice1773 ありがとうございます ✌

[@scottshep8978]

One could eat well for an inexpensive price. All the food looked good.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

You can eat very well from a convenience store in Japan. Thanks so much for watching and your comment!

[@nailee7428]

We were in Japan this May and we totally loved the conviniece stores. We were there every day and there is so much more food to try. We liked the fried food like corn dog and tuna-mayo onigiri, from sweet food probably pancakes with whipped cream.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I could totally survive on convenience store foods...lol. Thanks for watching and the comment!

[@nailee7428]

@@grifsfoodandtravel Yes me and my boyfriend too. We had dinner there almost every day. Now I want something like this in my country.

[@brewcology]

Breakfast lunch dinner at 711, amazing

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I should have done a midnight snack too 😂 Maybe next time!

[@lalynobsuna591]

Am visiting in March. Can't wait to try Japanese food both from the conbini and resto.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Have a wonderful time and thank you for commenting!

[@iiraingirlii]

How was it

[@lalynobsuna591]

I was crazy about the Ekiben! 😅 I was like a kid in a candy store. Amazing and it's not expensive at all 😊 They're packaging and presentation is so impressive 😊. The white loaf bread at 7-11 is the softest I have ever eaten, like cotton.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

@@lalynobsuna591 Yes, the food at 7-11 in Japan is really good and affordable. Always fun to visit.

[@ErriiBerrii_]

@@lalynobsuna591glad you had a safe trip!! I hope you’re able to travel there again! I’m going to be there for a a week and 3 days. At the end of May I’m so overwhelmed lol I need to get my food list ready and my itinerary

[@chidorikitani4166]

グリフさんおはようございます😃 今日はコンビニですね、私はセブンイレブンかローソンへ行く事が多いです。 コンビニは、スーパーで買い忘れた物を買ったり、たまにオニギリやスイーツを買います。 日本食は鰻が美味しいと思いますが、食べましたか？焼き鳥もいいですね！

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

ありがとうございます ✌️

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Yes, I have tried eel and it is delicious.

[@Caffeinated_Warrior]

They could open an exact copy of the Japanese 7/11 here in Canada without changing a single thing and it would be massively popular here!

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I believe they are working on improving the menu choices in the US. The Wall Street Journal released a story about 7/11 in the US, and how the company will try to provide better quality food options. Maybe they will come to Canada next.

[@Duncan35]

when I was there the soft serve Ice cream that was flash frozen hard in its soft serve form

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Yes, I was tempted to try one of those soft serve ice cream cones. Did you try it?

[@izzfran]

Currently in Tokyo and loving the pork cutlet sandwiches and hot bottled Georgia black coffee (they have a 'fridge' with hot coffee in a bottle) at 7-11

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Those two are some of my favorites from 7-11. 😋

[@matshagonius6022]

Seveneleven is like a second home. Always very welcoming and safe... 🥰🥰🥰.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Is one of the first places I visit when coming to Japan..🤭. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[@sedmidivka]

yup, the convenience stores in Japan are like a tourist home turf 😂 they have great food and drinks and coffee, but also - they have toilets and because it's japan, they're very clean and have all the amenities, they have atms aaand they have trash cans 😂

Loved this video! 7/11 videos are so much fun!! So far we've only covered Vietnam's 7/11, but we can't wait to create one in Japan!!

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

7 Eleven in Japan is at another level. 😋 If you enjoy 7 Eleven, be sure to check out my other 7 Eleven episodes! Thanks so much for watching!

[@CostaRicaStory]

Wow, that puts convience stores in the states to shame. Nice healthy options there.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Japanese convenience stores provide lunches to many office workers, so they have to provide good meals like restaurants.

[@bfnew4440]

U gotta love how innovative the Japanese are. Great country

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Oh yes, Japan makes you feel like you are in the future. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Thanks so much for subscribing. I don't think you are the only one to think that...lol. Hope you enjoy many more videos on the channel.

[@daliladirienzo]

The Melon pan looks exactly like the Concha that is the typical Mexican sweet bread 😊

Yes it looks very similar. 😁 Thank you for watching and commenting.

Hi I was wondering if the onigiri, sushi, and egg salad sandwich or fruit sandwich are kept cold at the store or room temperature?

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

The onigiri, sushi and egg salad sandwich are refrigerated while displayed for sale. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@leisamcpherson1317]

They are in the fridge section. Everything is fresh daily

[@bw5277]

I liked the hot fried chicken filet at 7-11 and salmon roll, tuna roll was bit too sweet for my taste...thanks

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I also love the salmon onigiri as well. Thank you for sharing your favorites.

[@bw5277]

My wife like egg salad and fruit and cream sandwiches!

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

@@bw5277 Don't get me started on egg sando and fruit sando. 😂 I could eat so many of those sandwiches.

[@FC-fp8bw]

I love 7 eleven, i wish stores also in Germany 😂

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

That would be awesome, to have German food in 7-eleven. Thanks you for watchin!

[@innovativemarketinganddigi8527]

How were the chips? How did the vegetable chips compare to the original?

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Chips were good. Couldn't really taste the vegetables in the chips, but they did taste a bit more flavorful versus the original. Thank you for watching and your comment.

[@innovativemarketinganddigi8527]

Arigato!

[@BennyLars]

After this video I made an egg salad sandwich

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I can understand why! 😂

[@RedDenim]

Did u have to microwave that miso cod?

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Yes, you can warm up the miso cod. Very yummy!

[@yaelabella222]

Why can’t they do that here in the states?

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Wall Street Journal did a story about 7 Eleven changes to their new menu items for the US. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHK3eZWGZsd0nqs

[@bw5277]

I’m not a big eater. Probably could have eaten well for about 20 dollars a day😢at 7-11.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Yes, I bet you can eat well for 20 bucks at 7-11 😋

[@iiraingirlii]

Nice

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Thanks!

[@jhchooo]

I had black cod in a pretty high end restaurant in Los Angeles not too long ago, it was nearly $60 entree. The $4 miso cod in 7 11 in Japan was much better. Food in America is so overpriced and poor.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Give me a miso cod from 7/11 with some rice, I"m good to go. 😂 Yeah, I hear inflation is really making it hard to eat in the states.

[@jhchooo]

@@grifsfoodandtravel A lot of people are cutting down on going out to eat and even fast food. I think after COVID everyone was doing revenge going out but now people are really cutting down. I'd say prices for going out have about doubled past 4 years.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

@@jhchooo Wow, that is pretty crazy. Haven't been in the states for awhile, so can't imagine the prices of food.

[@tonybalmeo3434]

Check out the latest video with Lawson and Family Mart.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

@@Theslowtravellife Yes they do, but it is all written in Japanese. So if you can read Japanese or use your google translate, the information will be on the packaging.

[@army_dreamer_8088]

It amazes me how much plastic they use

[@a-un7952]

プラスチックの多くはリサイクルされています。 日本ではゴミ収集の段階で、人々は焼却ゴミとリサイクルゴミで細かく分別することを求められます。

[@bubbythebrow153]

😂😂😂 and your point ?

[@redmhc]

@@bubbythebrow153the point is that all of Japan recycles 90% of the plastics that the industries exhales, in fact there are no plastic waste but mainly chemical wastes in the whole country

[@elsk1031]

日本のやり方を世界が真似すれば環境問題は起きませんが、なぜか世界は日本と同じようにできないようです。 そんなに難しい事はしていません。

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Japan does a lot better recycling than any other country in the world. So you do have to worry too much. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@jumpskirt]

I am really surprised at how unhealtful the Japanese food I've seen in vids iike this are! Wow. I would say, exept for the sushi and an occasional un-fried fish, it's really a lot of junk.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

I would say most convenience store foods are considered fast food or junk food. But for the most part, much of Japanese food is really healthy.

Annoying music

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Wow. Your 7-11s there are amazing. I live in a city in Canada of 300 thousand people. I can count on one hand how many 7-11s we have. And they aren’t as nice. Then we have these circle k stores. Their garbage. 🥴 Enjoyed your video! Have a great day!
