The konbini sandwich trio: egg, katsu and fruit sandwiches

Three sandwiches every visitor ends up posting, and where to find them.

Konbini sandwiches use soft, crustless milk bread. They sit in the chilled shelves near the onigiri.

  1. Egg sandwichたまごサンド
    tamago sando

    Creamy egg salad. 7-Eleven, FamilyMart and Lawson each make their own; comparing them is a favorite visitor game.

  2. Katsu sandwichカツサンド
    katsu sando

    A breaded pork cutlet with sweet tonkatsu sauce. Contains pork.

  3. Fruit sandwichフルーツサンド
    furūtsu sando

    Whipped cream and fresh fruit between sweet bread. More common in spring and summer.

  4. Ham and egg mixミックスサンド
    mikkusu sando

    A pack with ham, egg and sometimes potato salad. Good if you can't decide.

These are long-running products. Names, prices and availability change by store and season; check the shelf label.
