The Inside Scoop

Did you know?

Strawberry sandwiches are a konbini staple with a surprisingly competitive scene — the cream type, berry size, and presentation vary between chains and change with the seasons. The cross-section of red berries against white cream has become iconic, fueling the 'moe-dan' (cute cross-section) trend on social media.

How to eat

  • 1The cream is generous and will escape at the slightest squeeze. Handle like the delicate dessert it is.
  • 2Keep refrigerated until you're ready to eat — warm cream and soft strawberries don't hold up well.
