Konbini-sweets are abridged word of confectioneries which are sold at convenience stores.
In the past, main users of convenience stores were men and daily practical goods such as meals and drinks are major goods to purchase.
Confectionaries are just supporting goods and purchased on the way.
At that time, most of confectionaries were made by major confectionery companies.

But one of popular convenience stores, LAWSON developed its original cake and this cake became a sought-after product.
Since then, most of convenience store industries has focused on developing its own new brand confectioneries.
These are high quality but prices are usually lower than regular sweets of confectionery’s shops.

On a popular TV program I watched, famed seven confectioners evaluated whether these Konbini-sweets are acceptable or not.
Surprisingly, most of sweets were judged as acceptable, sometimes unanimously.
This prove latest Konbini-sweets are worth tasting at reasonable price.

Zoni is a Japanese traditional soup served during the New year holidays.
It contains rice cakes, slice of fish pasta cake and vegetables.
Zoni varies depending on regions.

A form in eastern Japan is based on clear soup with a rectangular shaped rice cake.
On the other hand, that in western Japan is based on white miso soup with a round shaped rice cake.

The ingredients of Zoni vary from region to region, it is also often varied by family.
A traditional taste for each family is handed down from generation to generation.
Unfortunately, that tradition of taste may cause a family trouble due to birthplace of husband and wife.
When I was child, I often encountered confrontation over different taste between my parents.

Because my father was born in eastern side and mother in western side of Japan.
It was my sad and bitter memory for the happy new year.

Anyway, eating the very chewy and elastic rice cake with soup, we wish for good luck and health through the year.
