    Fun fact about Lawson, they started out near where I grew up in Ohio. There's no stores left from the chain here, but I remember them as a kid. It is strange to see their logo still being used in Japan. They were famous for their french onion chip dip.

      Many stores and businesses we no longer have in the U.S. are thriving overseas in Asia. It is so nice to see them like coming home but going away. From food to clothing, all of the old favorites are there.

    I remember I have a warm memory about the taste of lawson fried chicken nugget. I was 8 years old back then, I’m not from Japan and I was always at the hospital for my whole stay in Japan (which means I never even went to Japanese convenience store). One time someone brought me lawson fried chicken nugget and I remember I love it so so so much since the very first bite, too much that I have their packaging beautifully engraved in my mind up until now😂 That’s why when I saw Karaagekun on your thumbnail I immediately clicked it as if I’m meeting someone I haven’t seen for a very long time (indeed, it’s been 13 years since I left Japan). Karaagekun is indeed really tasty, although I like the red one better😆Thank you so much for this content! I love the way your content brings back memories. Hope there will be a chance for me to go to Japan again soon and try many Japanese convenience store food especially that Karaagekun❤️

      thye pizza bun is a bit of a let down, but the chicken is delicious everytime, every flavor. The cheese isnt cheesy at all though, and there isnt much pronounced flavor.
      MY persoanl fave was the hot chicken, i would get one of those, a juice box, and sometimes an egg sandwhich to go along with it for breakfast.

    Funny enough, in American schools, our lunch halls actually served something similar to the chips. They were called "potato smiles" and were actual soft French fries instead of crispy chips. Been out of school for a few years now so I cant say if they still serve it

    Those potato crisps reminded me of so many things from my childhood. First, space raiders, which were the same as those crisps but they were shaped like alien heads. They used to be so cheap for a bag, now I hardly ever see them. Secondly, the smiley face oven potatoes. Any British person knows what I’m on about. They were like fries…but shaped like a smiley face. It was a staple of British freezer food along with chicken dippers or fish fingers.
