I tried the "Increased Fresh Vegetable Salad" from Family Mart. You can enjoy plenty of sweet corn kernels and crunchy cabbage. It has 60 kcal, 2.7g (0.25oz) protein, 0.7g (0.25oz) fat, 9.0g (0oz) sugar, 3.1g (0.04oz) dietary fiber, and 0.1g (0.04oz) salt equivalent. 178 yen (tax included).

FamilyMart Increased Fresh Vegetable Salad

A simple salad topped with corn, purple cabbage, and carrots, with 30% more corn and cabbage for one week only. Cherry tomatoes and green leaves add color.


Dressing is sold separately, so this time I paired it with "Low-Sodium Japanese Dressing. I quickly poured the dressing over the vegetables that were packed into the large container, and when I scooped the corn with a fork and popped it into my mouth, the sweetness and crunchy texture spread out.


The cabbage can be scarfed down with green leaves and mini-tomatoes to accentuate its refreshing flavor, sweet and sourness, and soft mouthfeel. It is an orthodox salad, but it is hearty enough to fill one's stomach for a light lunch. It seems to go better with hot, unsweetened straight tea than with coffee or vegetable juice.
