Totally agreed with you guys. Lawson, Family Mart, 7 Eleven in Japan are the best (maybe in the world). 7 Elevens in Singapore are borderline OK (manageable) but Japan's 7-11s are the best. Been to 7-11s in Taiwan, USA, Malaysia, HK, Germany (very few) ...and they are good but again.. Japan's is still the best. No question about it.

AG1 is great if you live in the US I'm sure. But I live in Australia and for people who actually live close by to where it's made, we get screwed pretty hard. The HQ and where they sell from is actually in Delaware I believe. So if someone from Australia or NZ wants to buy this 'NZ' product. It's actually USD not AUD. By the time you take into account shipping costs of sending it there and back plus the exchange rate. It's like $150 AUD a month. Plus the whole proprietary blend things makes me not particularly trustworthy of them. They have this massive ingredient list, but don't actually disclose amounts to you. So there's a good chance there is a number of ingredients that are are in such small quantities, you're not actually getting any benefit from it, but that way they get to throw it in their ingredient list and show it off.

My God, this is gonna be fun. And not to mention. The many other options at 7-Eleven. (Or simply the discount meals will be my 4th meal. Yeah, I think I'm eating 4 times during my trip.)
