Hanshin Tigers Onigiri
This Hanshin Tigers onigiri appeared in my local Family Mart today. Behind the yellow and black veil was a heavily sauced tonkatsu and cheese combination. If I had followed the heating instructions, it may have been more palatable.
Here's the online translation of the Family Mart spin:
"By the cheers of fans, players and Merton Korabomenyu according to euphony and Matonkatsu. Awasemashita the use of this mature cheddar and pork tonkatsu Hara Takashi Andes. Range even more delicious served warm. NB: Treatment and only four Shikoku and Okayama Prefecture and the Kansai area."
