I also collect can coffee a bottles and cans of other beverages from Japan. I love Boss coffee best. I even built a tower out of premium clear Boss. Last year I went to Japan and couldn't find premium clear. Thank you. It is great to see someone else shares my passion. I was very pleased to see your blog.

Sadly, I am not aware of any Japan import stores in Atlanta, but if there are, that's your best bet. A lot of asian import stores carry other brands of canned coffee, but I've only seen one so far that carries Boss. :-/ Hello,

I haven't tried this, but looks like it might work!

Coffee. ;) It doesnt' taste like Orange Juice, and it doesn't taste like chicken. It tastes like coffee. Some coffee's better than others, for sure, but it's still coffee. ;) Just kidding.

Definitely not true! If you can save up a few pennies, try getting some of the better (i.e., more expensive) beans (and a grinder if you don't have one, so you can grind them); then pay attention to what you are drinking.

I tried one of those once by accident (same Boss Coffee flavor, but one 'slot' was heated, the other cold, I picked the wrong one). Yeah, they're kinda toasty. :) Glad you have such a grocery store nearby. Nabe is actually real easy to make, as my wife often just uses regular over teh counter foods (chicken, tofu, cabbage, mushrooms) for her's. I ought to post about that sometime. ;-) Ha ha ha, I forgot about the hot ones.

Especially hot cans in the winter that give you first-degree burns on your hands :D. I also saw your post about New Year's day and oden. I just had a conversation with someone about how I had been craving oden lately (it's winter, must have nabe-type food! :)). Thankfully, I have a Japanese grocery store nearby, I am going to go get oden stuff and see what kind of coffee they have. Awww I miss canned coffee from vending machines!
