The 7-Eleven Japan Avocado Sando has been added to the convenience store brand's sandwich menu as a light, artisan-style option that's perfect for satisfying cravings in a simple, seasonal way. The sandwich starts off with simple bread slices topped with avocado, pork ham, tomato and Cobb's sauce to give it a light, refreshing taste that works well in summertime heat. The sandwich balances out taste, texture and quality with convenience to work well for lunchtime enjoyment or packing into a picnic.
The 7-Eleven Japan Avocado Sando comes as part of the brand's recent push to revitalize the convenience store sandwich as consumers gravitate towards premium experiences with value-driven price points. The sandwich is available now at participating locations for 399 yen each.
