I've been to a lot of local convenience stores in my travels throughout Asia and the Pacific, and man they are on a whole other level compared to ours in the west. Sushi, onigiri, hot ramen, buns and bao and dumplings, roasted pork and duck and chicken skewers, just all kinds of great stuff. It's no wonder Asian countries have lower obesity rates, there's quality food available when you need it instead of donuts and chicken wings.
