A curry doughnut from a convenience store was the first food I ever bought in Japan. Like the strawberry sandwich, it feels very wrong but also very right. I doubt it will ever make it to M&S though.

The promise of a strawberry jam donut, only to discover it was red bean paste, caught me out again and again. Or there was the time I was delighted to discover rhubarb at a roadside stall, then after preparing a crumble I discovered it was some bitter vegetable. Finally in Turkey this time, the rustic looking jam bought as a gift that turned out to be for leg waxing.
