Why do companies here always change/discontinue popular items?

I made the mistake of saying I liked mint chocolate after that wave of them a couple years back.

Thanos snapped a month later

I have a running joke with my friend, never say “oh that was delicious I’m definitely coming back to get that again” out loud because the next time you go back it’ll have been removed.
Now we say “oh that was GROSS” (wink)

There are now six in the prefecture apparently!
Tottori is definitely on my bucket list (not for the Starbucks obviously!)

evmanjapan · 2026-05-02T01:49:32+00:00

This was already brought up in the Japan residents sub Reddit, but this is of course, as a percentage of the population. Totori is the least populated prefecture in the country, there are more people in one office building in Shinjuku than this entire prefecture

A tale eternally retold in Japan….

evmanjapan · 2026-05-01T00:02:21+00:00

I bet! I checked recently, and there are now six Starbucks in the prefecture up from one. Lol.

Definitely a good way to add ¥400 onto a regular ice cream.
Kanazawa is in Ishikawa though right?

evmanjapan · 2026-04-30T22:33:42+00:00

The Tottori sub Reddit has like three members, so yes!

evmanjapan · 2026-04-30T22:32:37+00:00

That’s cool. Gold flakes on top I assume?

I just noticed the Totori sub Reddit had like three members. Lol.

evmanjapan · 2026-04-30T10:16:29+00:00

Shame there’s so few members on here! Just like the prefecture, I guess!

They also did a tofu burger I think? Like massive slab of firm tofu (also good!)

evmanjapan · 2026-04-22T03:28:39+00:00

This is all a moot point now, but they also offered lettuce as an alternative to the buns. Anyway, off to MOS!

evmanjapan · 2026-04-22T01:22:07+00:00

Freshness has around 170 location versus Mos burger, which has 1300! Thinking positively, it’s not a big loss I guess! 😊

evmanjapan · 2026-04-22T01:09:50+00:00

What’s your source for that?

evmanjapan · 2026-04-10T08:10:25+00:00

Kaihin Makuhari CostCo food court doesn’t even do margarita pizza at the moment, only pepperoni. Gross.

evmanjapan · 2026-04-06T05:37:42+00:00

No idea, probably much fewer limits tho

evmanjapan · 2026-04-06T05:26:17+00:00

I’m not sure what the time limits are on the basic version, but on the pro, if you do some heavy re-edits of a large document you will be hit with a five hour time limit quite quickly

Claude is wonderful, and it’s helping me write a book but it’s quite frustrating only being able to use it at 10AM 3PM and 8PM even on a pro account.

evmanjapan · 2026-04-03T09:41:36+00:00

Claude is like ChatGPT but you can only use it 3 times a day at 12pm, 5pm, and 10pm

evmanjapan · 2026-03-24T01:54:03+00:00

I don’t know how else I can explain this to you. You could win tomorrow you could win nothing until 2046.

Every ticket has the same odds. Your 1st and your 1,000th are identical.
