Food

So, now to talk about everyone's favorite subject: food.
For starters, the bread.  As someone who has issues with any amount of grease or oil in my food, bread is my staple food, so I eat it all the time.  Japan has all sorts of interesting bread that you can buy at any convenience store, with a ton of different types of fillings (some sort of whipped-up cream being most common, followed by bean paste and strawberries).  Oh, and sadly, grape jam (or grape anything) does not really exist in this country.  Blueberry is far more likely to exist.  Also, it's hard to find mint anything; you just find green tea flavorings that look kinda like mint, but are most definitely not...how deceitful...T_T
Loaves of bread are something else.  First of all, they are not "loaves," but rather cubes of bread cut into various numbers of slices, depending on how thick or thin you like your slices.  Second, there are no bread ends.  I'm serious.  I wonder what happens to all of the bread ends...do they just burn them? Feed the crows and pigeons? End world hunger?  Because there are no bread ends in a store, unless it is a bakery shop.
And for the health-conscious people out there, there isn't really any wheat or multi-grain bread.  Or brown rice.  Japan grows it's own rice, and it's all sticky white rice.  If you find a rice ball at the store that looks like it might be brown rice, or maybe even fried rice--run away; it's all soy sauce.  Because the Japanese love soy sauce.  Oh, and mayonnaise; mayo is the ranch dressing of America.  This may or may not be a good thing for you, depending on whether or not you like tuna salad, because tuna-mayo or tuna salad can also be found fairly easily  ^_^
Hm, that's all for now; I may write more about food later.

And oh yeah, strawberries are a winter fruit.
