It's funny to realize that onigiri are probably some of the worst offenders when it comes to centralized fillings. But I personally would never think to complain about those kombini onigiri.

So maybe if the bread is OK, it's still worth it to some people to get some bites that are more like just bread.

(Yes I do consider seaweed the crust of an onigiri :-))

Btw, magic to me was finding an Aquarius vending machine with the bonus size cans while walking home on a sweltering summer day.

I roll my eyes about most of these articles (lived in Japan for ten years)but one thing I would really praise is the packaging of onigiri. Whoever invented that is a genius.

Isn't onigiri meant to be most of rice? Can't say the same for sandwiches.
