It is cold every day. Looking at the people walking with their coat collars down, I feel that winter is just around the corner. I'm not good at cold, but I like winter because the meat buns are delicious.


That's why today, I tried to compare the new buns that the editorial department was interested in from the convenience store Chinese buns that will become more and more delicious from now on!

● Ministop "Pork Kakuni Man"

"Pig Kakuni Man " (200 yen), which is on sale from November 14th. When you bite into the dough, you will see a simmered pork kakuni with a thick, sweet and sour bean paste.


The body is extremely soft and melts in your mouth. The fat content of the meat is small and not squeaky, so even people who are not good at the fat part of pork kakuni can eat it deliciously and refreshingly. With a sweet flavor overall, it seems to be loved by men and women of all ages!


● Circle K Sunkus "Mushroom Cream Man"

"Mushroom cream bun " (130 yen) that looks somewhat like mushrooms. Hokuto mushrooms (King trumpet, Maitake mushroom, Bunashimeji) are inside.


When you bite into it, the rich taste and aroma of mushroom cream soup brings happiness to your mouth. Mushrooms are more assertive than I expected, so it's irresistible for mushroom lovers! The "crispy" texture of mushrooms is also alive and well. A mellow, creamy, slightly Western-style finish is an exquisite and innovative Chinese steamed bun.


● Family Mart "Spicy Sichuan Mapo Tofu Man"

Famima's "Super Spicy Sichuan Mapo Tofu Man " (140 yen) is on sale for a limited number of 500,000 meals. You can see the red lumps kneaded into the orange dough with the "spicy" branding iron. Is it a chili pepper? Expectations rise.


When you divide it in half, the spicy scent of Japanese pepper pierces your nose at that moment. When I grabbed it, my mouth burned all at once! Hey !!


This is unexpectedly spicy! It's meaty, and it's not that spicy. If you think it's sweet and look sweet, it will hurt. A level where your hands tremble lightly.

However, Sichuan style = Doubanjiang and Japanese pepper are spicy, so it hurts and I can't eat it! There is no such thing. The flavor of chili oil arouses the next bite, and the meat that has been simmered also demonstrates its original taste and texture. As long as you have a drink that relieves the spiciness, you can eat it deliciously until the end.

As mentioned above, it was delicious for all three people, but personally, I woke up because it was quite shocking, rather than Famima's spicy meat bun. How about a winter snack or breakfast?
