American foods in Japan(not snacks)
 
What kinds of American foods(like macorroni, pizza, hot dogs, ect...) are in Japan? I'm not talking about snacks because there's another thread about that but actual food that you could like eat for dinner or something.

With a little bit of effort - everything.

Japan isn`t too big on "processed" things like the US - you can buy delivery pizza, and hot dogs... But macaroni and cheese would require me to buy macaroni and cheese, then combine them.
Basically, just don`t expect to find a ton of meals in a box or microwave dinners.

I quite honestly can`t think of any ingredient that I could not get access to if I were to want to make something so it`s really hard to answer your question.

Yeah, when I was in Japan I could tell that processed things were nearly non-existant. I made my host family grilled-ham-and-cheese sandwiches with an organic tomato soup. It was nearly impossible to find processed American-style cheese...

I cut the sandwiches into chopstick-size pieces and gave everyone a dipping dish full of soup... It was hilarious! (And delicious) :vsign:

When it comes to cooking your own food- the possibilities are endless considering you just have to buy the ingredients... Are you talking about restaurants?
