11 Things That The US Should Seriously Adopt From Other Countries, According To A World Traveler

At a convenience store or gas station in the US, you might find pizza, hot dogs, and nachos. In some Asian countries I've visited, like Japan, China, and Korea, you can pick up a complete, healthy, and gourmet meal of rice, fish, and veggies or even a bowl of hot soup. Some Lawson stores in Japan even have  cafés where you can order a latte or cappuccino from the barista.

Food aside, these convenience stores are one-stop destinations for pretty much anything you can imagine. At the major chains in Japan, you can buy concert or game tickets, use the copier/printer, and drop off your mail and packages while buying a bag of chips. Now that's the real meaning of convenience.
