Pon!

[Unkotare]

Way, way, way back in the day in neighborhoods around Japan a guy would come cycling around pulling a little oven and calling out a song. People would run out like the ice cream truck was around, bring a small bag of rice, and "pon!" the rice would get puffed, coated in sugar, and returned in a big paper bowl. Delicious. A version can still be ordered today.

I've been to Japan a few times but I don't recall that dish.

The backroads, like baked sweet potatoes.
