As I had mentioned previously, I'm quite adventurous when it comes to new food items at the convenience store. When I discover something intriguing, I need to taste it and satisfy my own curiosity. Even if it's not funky, if it looks new and interesting I'll probably buy it just for the experience. This morning I came across "Ham & Cheese, Egg French Toast" (2,000 KRW) which I deemed perfect as I was looking for something to eat for breakfast. I had already accepted that anything I bought from 7-Eleven wouldn't be very healthy, and this one seemed hearty and warm, which was just was I needed as now the weather has gotten rather cold.
The wrapping has two "tear here" slits, which is actually a clever idea because it means you can tear off the extra wrapping after you've even about half of the sandwich. So smart. The instructions tell you to microwave it for 30 seconds before tearing the wrapper, but I made a small opening before popping it in because that's what I'm used to, and I figured it would heat up the food more thoroughly.
It tastes very good. The "egg salad" has veggie bits and onion, I think, which flavors the sandwich quite nicely. It reminds me of the "toast" sold by Korean street vendors: savory and sweet at the same time (due to the French toasted bread, which doesn't really taste like French toast but made the sandwich syrupy overall). And the cheese, which I presume is cheddar or American cheese or whatever, is slightly melted from the microwave... and anything with slightly melted cheese is instantly better in my book. What's more to say? I really love convenience store breakfasts. :D
