Welcome to the highs and lows of living in Asahi, Nyu-gun, a small and strange town nestled in the mountains of western Japan. Dare you read what thrilling adventures will befall....AN ENGLISHMAN IN NYU-GUN!!!
In 2004, a few years after university, I decided to sign up for the JET programme, and I became an assistant English teacher in Fukui, a prefecture on the west coast of Japan. I taught there for two years before returning to London, where I now work in publishing.
I spotted this in a conbini (convenience store) the other day - a strawberry and cream sandwich. My common sense was kicked in the shins by my curiosity, and I was forced to buy it. Unfortunately, it tasted exactly how I imagined bread with strawberries and cream would taste.

Dude you will have to post one over to us and then we can give you an opinion when it has travelled a few miles and is a few days older it can only get better!
Hmm. Maths time.
Y255 for a strawberry and cream sandwich. That's, what, £1.30? I'm guessing that each pack contains approximately 2 complete strawberries. Therefore 6 packs will get you 12 strawberries at a cost of Y1530 or £7.80. Comparred to your God's Fruit post, that represents a remarkable saving of over Y3000 or £15. And you get free bread and cream! Sounds like remarkably efficient way to get your five portions of fruit.
Could you hawk the fruit to the department store at a profit?
Not a bad idea Tim. Although it's probably not a good ides to mess with God's Fruit. I might get into all sorts of trouble for selling unholy strawberries.
