A popular school lunch item from Kitakyushu—meatballs with colorful sweet and sour sauce—is now available at 7-Eleven stores in the area. Supervised by local Chinese restaurant Tanaka Men Hanten, the meal is part of the city’s “Delicious School Lunch Project,” aiming to introduce authentic local flavors to students. The release also includes local specialties like “saba nukazuke” rice balls and grilled udon, available until November 25. Source: 7-Eleven / Kitakyushu City Mayor official X
