Recently I made a trip
back home to my native country of America (which is how the USA is known in
Japan), excited to be comfortably surrounded by all things American. What
should I find, however, but a very familiar sight right next to good ol’ Trader
Joes – Daiso! Daiso is the equivalent of the dollar store, and it’s everywhere in Japan.
Their products are actually quite good, ranging from handy kitchen products to
cute stationary and nail stickers. I knew I had to check out this
“Americanized” Daiso. Would the products be the same?
