First meal in Japan

So I had planned to eat at BK while here in Japan because I heard it's different. I didn't now it be my first bite of food after stepping off the plane, but it turned out it was literally right outside the subway exit where I was supposed to meet with up with my apartment renter and I had some time to kill, so... It was good, actually it tasted really good after traveling for so long to get here. The differences: I can't recall what Whoppers taste like in America because its been so long, but it definitely wasn't smothered in this much ketchup and mayo (they taste different btw: the ketchup tasted less sweet and more tangy, and we already love Japanese mayo back home). The proper way to eat a burger in Japan isn't to unwrap the whole thing but just enough to bite (i.e. how we eat burritos) and know I know why. Good thing I packed napkins. I think its so saucey because the patty is drier, but again, hard to remember.

Also tried Pocari Sweat from a vending machine in the airport (like Gatorade).
