South Africans refer to rusks as "beskuit", and for us it's mostly breakfast food.

They are all good though. Maybe they just steal a lot from Kanagawa because I'm now thinking of Hato Sabure and the Han-tsuki stuff.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08002643968517980587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086689852914881504.post-81266797833471390152012-12-07T16:02:41.714+09:002012-12-07T16:02:41.714+09:00Canned bread?!

With nothing better to do, you just experiment and try everything when you are on a ferry.<br /><br />I haven't tried the exotic foods yet either.<br /><br />Yes, a banana vending machine. I also remember seeing an apple slices machine this year. Saw a friend put a picture on Facebook that reminded me of it yesterday.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08002643968517980587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086689852914881504.post-57397676454644835622012-12-07T00:38:36.532+09:002012-12-07T00:38:36.532+09:00A banana vending machine?!?

That is hilarious!<br /><br />I remember the Oden and canned bread machines at Akiba, I used to transfer there and always eyed the machine suspiciously, never gaining the courage to actually try anything...<br /><br />The AM/PM machine sounds like a better version of one we tried at a parking area - the fries were still frozen in the very middle although the edge bits were hot and crispy!

Pretty expensive.<br /><br />I also remember seeing umbrella machines, and there is a canned bread machine in Akihabara Station. Then there is oden, udon,soba, all in a can machines.<br /><br />Do gachapon machines count as a vending machine?<br /><br />For hot food, I remember my ferry trip to Shikoku where I lived off of am/pm vending machines. They had frozen dishes that were nuked for you within a couple minutes.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08002643968517980587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086689852914881504.post-18695282574413119062012-12-04T13:25:02.220+09:002012-12-04T13:25:02.220+09:00I would love a used book vending machine!

Like a car wash?!"<br /><br />That's what happens when you wake up at three and jump on the internet to check whether pesky questions about Mrs Akiyama have been answered. (THANKS!) I haven't had coffee yet - this is a bit early even for me - so the head's not functioning yet.<br /><br />Have you seen the used-book vending machines in Tokyo? There is (was?) one at Ikebukuro Station.
