7-Eleven Japan’s Viral Egg Salad Sandwich Is Now Available In The U.S.

7-Eleven just brought one of Japan’s most beloved convenience store staples to U.S. shelves, and it’s the kind of simple, perfect snack that makes you wonder why it took this long. The Japanese-Style Egg Salad Sandwich—the famous tamago sando—is officially available at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes locations nationwide.

If you’ve ever watched travel vloggers lose their minds in a Tokyo konbini, this is that sandwich. Soft, fluffy milk bread. A creamy, velvety egg salad hit with the umami richness of KEWPIE mayo—the egg-yolk-only Japanese legend that’s basically a seasoning in itself. It’s comfort food engineered with the precision of a country that treats convenience stores like temples of efficiency.

The original sandwiches in Japan have had a global fan club for years. People rave about them online, haul them as their first jet-lagged meal, and swear they’re the gold standard. Now the U.S. gets a chance to see what the fuss is about, and 7-Eleven didn’t cut corners on the formula.

For anyone who’s ever said, “Man, I wish we had the Japanese stuff here,” this feels like a win. That’s me. I’m anyone.
