I'm Sumire, a writer who loves convenience store sweets and food.

Onigiri is a classic convenience store meal. There is a wide variety of ingredients, from standard to unique, so it can be hard to choose.

So this time, we asked a Seven-Eleven representative to tell us about their most popular "best-selling onigiri." Let's introduce them right away.

1. "Temaki Onigiri with Charcoal-Grilled Matured Sockeye Salmon" - Experience the delicious flavor of charcoal fire

First up is the most classic of onigiri: salmon! "Temaki Onigiri with Charcoal-Grilled Matured Sockeye Salmon" (189 yen).

The fluffy rice is topped with plenty of roughly shredded salmon.

The moment you bite into the charcoal-grilled salmon, you'll experience its rich, savory flavor! It's just the right amount of salty, and the more you chew it, the sweeter it gets, making it an excellent match for rice.

Among the standard fillings, the one that has the most fans is the "Temaki Onigiri Tuna Mayonnaise" (151 yen).

The spicy Spicy Fish Eggs used here is carefully matured over a period of seven days, concentrating its spiciness and flavor.

The grains stand out and the crunchy texture of Spicy Fish Eggs is a delight to feel the moment you take a bite! The moderate spiciness adds a nice accent to the whole dish, making it an addictive taste!

It seems that the "classics" are popular after all! Incidentally, Seven-Eleven's onigiri have been undergoing a phased renewal since March 2024. The rice is overseen by Hachidaime Gibe, a rice restaurant run by a long-established rice shop in Kyoto, and the ingredients themselves have also been improved. There's no doubt that even gourmets will be satisfied. (Text by Sumire)
