There is a big Asian grocer here over in North Wales, I'm hoping to be able to check it out at some point, but haven't been able to make the time with the new job and all the other stuff that is going on. I think that I might try to find a place that makes bento with the ume onigiri to try some before I invest in the stuff, since it's so darn expensive. I have no idea if I'll like it or not.

If I ever make it out to your neck of the woods, I'd certainly give the International District in your town a try.

Sounds like a great plan. You know, I don't know what ume paste is. I googled ume or umeboshi, as I found out, and still don't know exactly what that is. Seems like there are several flavors? I'm gonna check it out at the grocery store. Let us know how you like once you tried one.
