All The Differences Between American And Japanese 7-Eleven | Food Wars | Food Insider

So apparently the Japanese 7-Eleven's are like mini to-go restaurants, while the ones in the US serve packaged processed food, or reheated frozen processed garbage. It's almost an insult to call them the same store, how do we let them get away with this crap here?

[GeorgeJapan]

Thank you very much for giving me this precious opportunity. I’m really honored to work with you amazing food war’s team. Arigatou gozaimasu!! And I’m looking forward to watching new food wars US vs India episodes!!

[detectivegumshoe]

I don't think I've ever seen such a stark difference in selection and quality on a Food Wars ep before lol

[jannathumaira]

As a foreigner living in Japan. I can say that I can’t live without convenience store food. And most people in Japan can’t. The deserts, drinks, breads, hot foods everything is soo good, fresh and convenient when you’re having a lazy day or craving something.

i love how George is having the time of his life
and Joe is trying to find a reason to live

[chipskylark]

George is just living his best life in this episode lol

Joe looks like he’s grounded while all his friends are out playing 😂😂😂

There's no comparison between U.S 7 Elevens and the 7-11 in Asia. Dramatic difference on quality of food and service. For ppl who live in the U.S and want to experience the Asia 7-11s, go to Hawaii. 7-11s are run by different companies in Asia which explains the significant difference. As an American, I barely go to 7-11 except if I need a drink. Food is mostly unedible unless ur drunk, high or don't care

No contest. Japan wins every category. They pretty much perfected the "convenience store". Pricing = amazing. Choices = Phenomenal. Packaging = A+. And just by looks alone, Taste = Way Better.

7-11 in Japan has better food then most restaurants here in the UK

[mclovin]

For anyone who’s ever visited japan, you can literally get a quality meal from 7-11. It’s not even a comparison. I wouldnt set foot in a 7-11 in america but went almost daily in japan.

[adamwebster]

The Japanese chocolate doughnut looks much better than the one you’d get in America or here in the UK

[DctrGizmo]

I’m upset that Japan’s 7-11 has actual proper food where we have nothing but junk food. Anyways, I’m excited that you guys are branching out to India!

Man I was obsessed with Japan as a kid and all that food is reminding me why. I was a fat kid who loved food, and all the Japanese movies/tv shows I watched as a kid had me drooling.

This was a good episode, but god it made me really jealous.

Me, as a European, am always so surprised about the drink sizes in the US. How can the smallest soda be 651ML!! That would in the Netherlands be enough for the entire family!! (I mean in Japan they have 1l and 1.5 liter packages but they are clearly to pour in glasses and share, they aren't portion sized...

US 7-Eleven Stores are pretty sad compared to the Japanese ones. I agree with you Joe, the food is horrible in both Canada and the US. George, you should have had milk after that spicy FINAL Noodle Dish. Milk stops the burning and coats your tongue and throat.

My family and I visited Japan in end of 2018. We mainly stayed at Osaka, and the Airbnb we stayed at was a block away from a 7 Eleven store. I was particularly impressed by how delicious their food items were mainly their sandwiches, noodles and pastries. Definitely incomparable to the quality of food in 7 Eleven North America.

When I went abroad to Japan many years ago 7-11 was a saving grace. 7-11 and Family Mart (similar to 7-11). Daily convenience items, banking, event tickets, hot food, drinks, alcohol. They really are mini hot food + grocery + convenience stores. Rated 20 out of 10 for japan. Maybe a 5/10 for US 7-11 (mainly over processed and prepackaged foods/drinks)

[OutlawSpaceWizard]

Japan : Healthy quick bits of veggies, meats, fish and rice, for very cheap
Amereica :Yeah this thing will make you poop yourself"

George just enjoying all the food from Japanese 7-Eleven while Joe tends to get more and more disgusted by the American 7-Eleven food being like just stop just stop ugh. poor American joe.

[masonguzman]

Man, this video just reminded me how much better the konbinis in Japan were. I won't even go to a 7-11 in the US but almost went every night in Japan just to try so many of the snacks. What a stark contrast.
