    Seen those at 7-11. I’ve had the ones in Japan and I seriously doubt these are going to be on that same level and I don’t think I want to risk it given the price.

  2. dinkydez

    Interesting! Probably not the same quality or flavor at all, unfortunately.

  3. NotYourMom132

    $5.50 and smaller lmao, the cost of freedom I guess?

  4. char_binx

    Japanese ones don’t have crusts on

    I’ve gotten this. While still better than American egg sandwiches, the bread isn’t quite right and neither is the freshness. Price is a bit much too. Overall it’s probably 6/10, where I would get again but only if my other options sucked.

    I’ve had 卵サンド at all the kombini brands in Japan. The version at American 7-11s isn’t terrible. It’s pretty good compared to what we’ve gotten in the past, but it’s still lacking.

    The milk bread is pretty spot on. But the eggs are rubbery and the mayo is different.

    What’s the usual cost for one of these in Japan vs the $5.49 price tag from OP?

    I believe Japanese 7-11 (or its stock holding company) owns American 7-11 company. Yes the child bought its parent years ago. Now a big fund in America has been bidding to buy all or some of 7-11 Japan. A dog eating another dog business here!

  9. Looks a ton neater than the ones here, but also the packaging you show is super wasteful. Oh and your bread is a lot thicker and darker.

    awesome! i keep checking, and cannot wait!

    Where’s my spaghetti and potato korokke on a hot dog bun? I need my carb on carb on carb action!

    Japanese bread is milk bread and this one looks like some sort of wheat

  13. Pug_tech

    Just tried it, significantly better than the american versions like damn lmao, definitely not on par with the japanese but aside fromnthe crust its not terribly far off

  14. AmazingJapanlifer

    Imagine if they imported these all the way from Japan

  15. -mystris-

    There’s something about it that I can’t quite put my finger on – like, it doesn’t look like egg salad, it looks like solid butter

  16. corntorteeya

    Bring the ピザマン(pizza steamed bun) and we’ll talk.

  17. Ucfknight33

    Besides the bread being just thick meh, the egg salad tastes much more like American egg salad with their mayo and just not the same flavor profile as Japanese egg salad.

  18. Jay-Storm

    Just got back from Japan and theirs were 230 Yen which is $1.49 US

  19. kayayem

    The bread does not look right AT ALL. It looks dry and like it would actually hurt my mouth.

  20. wikowiko33

    Why dont japanese convenient stores just open in USA? I mean you guys really like these stuff right?

  21. Unusual_Score_6712

    Such heavy duty packaging

  22. ComaToast444

    This looks nothing at all like the ones I see from Japan

  23. Bitter_Spray_6880

    Hahaha, nope, keep on dreaming for now

    Gas station egg sandwich you say?

  25. EvilBill515

    Ive had two of these so far they are as close as we are going to get here. They were pretty good.

  26. casiocalcwatch

    In this thread: people that think the US version can just magically match the price and quality in Japan

  27. chookity_pokpok

    We got strawberry sandos in M&S this summer in England.

  28. Unfair_Cicada

    I don’t see in my store. OP where you located

  29. Unfair_Cicada

    $5.49 is quite expensive for 2 slices if bread and egg mayonnaise. 🫩

  30. forever_a10ne

    They’re expensive and nothing like the Japanese ones.

  31. Corvoxcx

    So is this in Japan or are all the US 7/11’s providing Japanese food products.

    Best thing traveling through parts of Asia was how good 7/11 became outside of the USA

  32. sashabriana

    Japan would never insult us with that horrid crust
