Glitter garnish


Bling for your hamburger

According to my sister-in-law, Yuko, when kids go to school there is an obligation to make their lunch look cool. Hence, there is an entire industry devoted to products that allow you to press happy faces into rice, arrange seaweed in new and interesting ways and, sparkle up your hamburger. I bet you this product only sells well in Japan.

Shortly after this picture was taken I was reprimanded by a store assistant for taking a photo. Shortly after THAT, there was announcement in Japanese and English over the PA system telling customers not to take photos. So don't let anyone tell you I'm not laying it on the line when I take my lens out.
