Sega Toys has this new item for kids who dream of working behind the counter at McDonald's. The "Deru deru hamburger" has a talking Anpanman as your host, a pushable menu with six different meal choices, and a little hamburger machine that spits out your order once it's ready. Then you can pay the cash register on the left and pretend to eat your plastic burger. (Or, maybe you can buy some White Castle mini-burgers and put them in the machine and really eat it.)

In 2008, Chronicle published my book: Urawaza: Secret Everyday Tips and Tricks from Japan.
I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!
