Limerick<\/strong>
A samurai from Kanazawa was hungry
He went to find something to fill his tummy
He entered Lawson\u2019s, 7-11 and Family Mart
After brandishing his sword, he was asked to depart
Alas, he had to have dinner in his castle alone eating a sandwich of salami<\/p>\nUC#3<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Fellow WLBOTTers – Japan is famous for their vending machines on the streets. Custom says you can\u2019t eat while walking, so people buy drinks from vending machine and consume next to it, then dispose of can at the machine. One of the more interesting flavors – aloe and white grape.

Japanese Slurpee Mashed Potatoes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We’ve been hearing rumors that you can get mashed potatoes and gravy from Slurpee machines in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
