Also do you think the transition is going to be instantaneous for me? No, it's going to take time for me to adjust since it's a different culture. Thanks for your sarcasm, it's amusing. No I'm not being forced to Japan. However there are some foods here that quite literally are comfort foods and again I don't want to give those up. You're assuming I've done no research whatsoever on Japanese cuisine and how to prepare it; you're assuming I've done no research on the types of specialty stores available (ones that sell western foods). Again, you're wrong. I can't say just one person did this, because many people who posted on this thread just assumed stuff about me; I want your advice not your assumptions. There is more to eat in Japan then just seafood. They also eat pork and chicken; some people don't care for seafood and I'm one of them. The reason I asked for advice regarding this is because I had such a difficult time finding information about western food stores in Japan. Also depending on where you live, the coast of China is right next to Japan. If I wanted to, I could go to China and buy some of the western foods I desire there. Did you ever think of that? Yes I realize I have to convert Japanese yen to Chinese yuan but there is a people's bank of China in the city of Shanghai (which is the city where I would shop). Basically what I intend to do is tie western cuisine in with Japanese cuisine. Reasons regarding this are simple; I grew up with western cuisine and I'm going to have to eat Japanese cuisine since I'm going to live in Japan (or be dependent of fast food which I refuse to do) You really should learn to read and think about what's being told to you before you make assumptions about people.

Whoa whoa whoa, your assumption of me is very rude
You got me all wrong, mate.
I was just saying what timo said, if you go to Japan eat their food. I eat food, food good, doesn't matter where food come from, food good, me not gunna say "Oh my, my tummy hurts coz I ate something unfirmiliar that doesn't belong to my home land~ OH MY~!"
I could easily just go from my normal diet into one thats different, no problem.
If you want western food order it online, though IMO it's pretty silly. If you want to learn how to cook japanese dishes buy a cook book to tie your "cuisines" together.
Stop confusing "then" and "than".
And I'd just stop being a puff and eat their friggin food.
Sorry for the harshness but, eye for an eye and all that.
