Mmmm, treats! As far as festival food goes, Japan has many interesting typical choices. Most are fried, and most are served on sticks. Corey's favorite is always tentacle on a stick:
Other options include fresh pineapple quarters, corn on the cob, or fried plums and strawberries:
And of course the sweets... Hirosaki is famous for apples, and we had delicious "apple ice" while there this weekend:
It's not exactly healthy food obviously (and I haven't pictures the dripping-with-oil yakisoba we chose in lieu of the corn), but it's a step up from fried Snickers bars and funnel cakes, right? It's nice to enjoy festival food without going into a diabetic coma afterwards.

I love that you guys are enjoying the culture so much while you're there. You're going to have the best memories! But tentacle on a stick? No thanks. :)
