Earlier this week, at my local 7-Eleven, a man had to be removed from the premises after repeatedly trying to urinate on urinate on ducks in the parking lot. Yes, I live in Florida.
For many (most?) of you, that story wouldn't seem out of place if it happened at your local 7-Eleven either. It's a magical, but complicated, place of Slurpies and sloppies.
Unless, of course, you're in Tokyo and your local 7-Eleven is the one in this viral TikTok video:
The original poster intended to highlight the stores new smoothies, which you find in the freezer area. You buy them as a cup of frozen fruits and/or veggies and get blended right there in the store after your purchase. For about two dollars!
As amazing as that is - viewers had some serious FOMO before we even got to all that.
The video shows a brief stroll through a clean, well lit, and amazingly stocked 7-Eleven full of food. Not just chips and snacks, either. The clip shows sushi, breads, cookies, yogurts, fruits, buns - it's a lot to take in.
Like ... a lot, a lot.

And people just couldn't get past how different this all is from their 7-Eleven experiences.

Oh, and that smoothie? Yeah, TikTok was all thinking the same thing.

7-Eleven has locations in multiple countries around the world, but it's clear not all of their customers are having the same type of experience.
Does this Tokyo 7-Eleven run fill you with envy? Or is this what 7-Eleven is like for you all the time?
