I couldn't go to the morning because of heavy rain, so I decided to buy it in advance. What is a sandwich that is cut in half and filled with ingredients, then packed tightly in a plastic pack that has expanded? Most likely, everyone would answer "Lunch Pack". Lunch Pack was introduced by Yamazaki Pan in 1984, but the original was the Snack Sandwich introduced by Fuji Pan in 1975. Due to differences in distribution power, only Lunch Pack is overwhelmingly available in stores now. There are many companies that have made a fortune with their products, but in the food and beverage industry, the top players are probably G***** and T*****. G***** far surpasses Yoshinoya, and most of the brands of T***** are for adults (due to certain reasons). Developing an original product requires time and money, but modifying an existing product is an efficient way of product development in a sense. Remembering when my mother bought a similar bag to the popular Madison bag in the past, this time I purchased the original version, the Snack Sandwich. If you go to Seiyu, both Lunch Pack and Snack Sandwich are available. The price is cheaper for the Snack Sandwich at 108 yen + tax. Since the spread of the coronavirus, self-checkout has become popular, so I earned Rakuten points and paid with PayPay. The reason why the bags of Lunch Pack and Snack Sandwich are expanded is that nitrogen is filled in to prevent the contents from being crushed when the bags are pressed in crowded trains. - Teriyaki Chicken & Tartar The teriyaki chicken is in a paste form, and the tartar sauce is filled separately to avoid overlapping with the chicken. - Ham and Egg The ham and egg shapes are still visible. I enjoyed a delicious breakfast.

There is a Montabo bakery inside the Seiyu supermarket at Hamatayama Station. The supermarket offers affordable prices, including their deli items. The cabbage menchi katsu is only 47 yen (plus tax) and is available every day. While the quality of the meat is not the best and the texture is soft, the size and taste are comparable to a menchi priced around 100 yen. Considering the price, it is a satisfying dish.

Strolling around Hamadayama station on a bicycle. Suginami ward is strict about abandoned bicycles, so where should I park? The bicycle parking at Seiyu is free for up to 1 hour. Let's also buy some snacks for tonight's drink. The first floor has a section for deli and bento boxes. There are fresh products in the basement. On the first floor, there is a salad with crab sticks like coleslaw for 248 yen. In the basement, there is a dish of shellfish and seaweed for 197 yen. Now, let's start the evening drink. The recent crab sticks have evolved, right? You wouldn't know if you ate them blindfolded. The crumbly texture is well done. And it goes well with mayonnaise. My beer is going down smoothly. It's a problem. I don't know the real name, but the shellfish-like shell with seaweed is sprinkled on top. The crunchy texture of the shellfish and the popping sensation of the seaweed are enjoyable. This also goes well with beer. Bon appétit.

I always rely on Seiyu for everything. On Christmas Eve, after work, I stopped by around 9 o'clock and found discounted cakes with price stickers. A cake that was originally 2376 yen including tax had a discount of 1402.92 yen, so I only paid 901 yen (including tax 973.08 yen)! And it was the Yamazaki nostalgic butter cake that I had been eyeing! When I was a child, butter cake used to be the star before whipped cream took over. It's a cake that you can only eat at Christmas (you never see it around otherwise). Even though there's a different cake in the fridge, I had to buy this one for myself! A Christmas present from me to me, since Santa doesn't visit me. My husband recently got us a family card, so I can go to Seiyu without any worries. With the Seiyu card, I get a 3% discount every time I pay. Now I can also enjoy the benefits like others do! (^-^) Thank you, me, for your hard work♡
