Well, in my case, I think it'd be easy since the stuff I eat at home, would be easily accessible there ingredient wise. For the most part, my diet is a bit more balanced than it used to be. I also grill a lot of fish (good for the Omega 3 stuff) and chicken (pretty lean) and veggies (I know Japan has this ) on my indoor grill. So that's why I feel I could do fine there. The preparation might be different, but I'm sure I'll do fine since all the stuff I mentioned is accessible.

I think the main things I'd "miss" or crave at some point or another is chili with a lot of cheese (I have my own way of making it, and usually prepare it vegetarian style [if for my family] or meaty style [for my friends]), eggs & cheese, and my pasta salad (since I doubt I'd find the ingredients I use in it there).
