This photo taken on December 6, 2023 shows Miyuki Kawarada, the president of Taro Tokyo Onigiri, a shop specialising in Japanese rice balls, known as "onigiri", with trendy fillings and toppings, posing at one of her stores in Tokyo. Wrapped in seaweed and stuffed with delicious fillings, "onigiri" rice balls are shaking off their reputation as a cheap and uninspiring snack in Japan, and enticing hungry converts abroad.
