Japan trip 5. What I have been eating.

Here are some examples of what I have been eating so far. These are things that you cannot find in the States but sure are Yummy. First I want to share what I have had at McDonald's. McDonald's?? you may ask. Why the heck would I eat at McDonald's? Shouldn't I be eating at some Japanese restaurants and experience the whole Japan experience. Well, believe me when I say that eating at McDonald's is part of the Japanese experience. They have some foods that you will not find in America. Below is what I had for breakfast yesterday morning. It is a Mega McMuffin. And it is very good. It is made up of two sausage patties, cheese, eggs, bacon, and salsa (I think, could have been Ketchup) all between two English muffins. I will be getting another one soon. Yummy!
Here is a Teriyaki burger. Highly recommended. I thought of something. I bet people thought I was weird taking pictures of my food at McDonald's. Something you don't see everyday.
This morning I had to go to Tokyo Station to get my Japan Rail Pass that will allow me to travel throughout Japan on the JR rail lines without buying tickets. I got hungry afterwards and found a little Japanese shop and bought Katsu Kare. This is basically Curry and rice with breaded Pork on top. This is one of my favorite simpled Japanese meals.

I found a Quiznos sub shop. I did not eat there but here is a picture of the menu. Click on it to see it bigger. It is interesting that there sub breads all have sesame seeds on them. Interesting.
On the way back to the hotel yesterday I was thirsty so i stopped in a convenience store and bought this not seen in America drink. This is Fanta Peach flavored. Why is it that all we get in America is Grape, Orange, and Strawberry. Why can't we get more flavors like this? It was very good.
Here is a snack I had Yesterday. It is a melon flavored pastry with chocolate chips. This is very good. Also, It is made by a company called Pasco. That is the name of my hometown by the way.

Here are little icecream bonbons that come witha sword to eat them with.
