> This hot take

It is not a hot take. I lived in Japan for quite some number of years and I'm back there regularly for work and to see friends. I know what I am talking about.

You live in Tokyo, you know damn well that you can receive silent judgement for being "that guy" who mostly eats at the conbini.

> But if you compare them with convenience store meals available elsewhere in the world (especially in the broadly understood West), they still _are_ pretty damn special.

What part of my original comment flew over your head? We said the same thing.

They are not that special when judged on merit.
