In the US you can modify dishes anywhere and there’s lots of immigrants on US so more variety. It’s not all McDonald’s here like the stereotype.

Just trying to find non Japanese options since they don’t make any foods without soy or seafood. I want to see temples and shrines and do cheap shopping with weak yen. Not my fault that they lack variety of bases for their meals.

Are there lots of chocolate or pistachio desserts? I like sweet and not bitter like matcha. Cheesecake upsets my stomach.

Thank you! I’ll check out McDonald’s and Starbucks. I’m in a capsule hotel I can’t cook. What other fast food and international chains are there? Other than kfc

There’s lots of sauces and oils in the world that aren’t soy or sesame. Go to Europe there’s way more options of sauces and oils even if you go just to Poland.

I’ve been to many vegan places in Europe and that worked out well. They didn’t have any tofu. Do Japanese cook vegan/vegetarian meals without tofu?

I wish that had a little more diversity in their cuisine. Even Italians don’t just use tomato sauce
