If you also want to try the pink pineapple, you might be able to find it at Tokyo Central in Gardena, California (address below). This isn't a regular product, so if you can't find it now, I'm sure it will return in the future.
If you find it, let me know your thoughts in the comments!

It was packed full of delicious traditional Japanese foods and activities and totally brought back some good memories of the festivals I use to go to in Japan (though not the exactly the same).
It was pretty cool and brought a bit of Japanese culture to the USA, which was wonderful to experience. And I was also surprise to see how many people there were speaking Japanese and not English. Was seriously a fun festival and I recommend the future ones.

Since the first winter I spent in Japan, Oden has been a favorite, cold-weather, comfort food. It's not winter here in California, but the kit was available anyway, so I thought, why not?
You normally see it displayed in the convenience stores in Japan as an al-a-carte meal to go. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to warm up and relax with good food.
