There are 31 Burger

There are 31 Burger Kings in Tokyo.

Japan Tobacco owns 25 of them. But they want to get out of the hamburger business (which bled off several billion yen in the last five years) and plan to sell the outlets to Lotteria, another fast food chain, who will convert them to Lotterias.

Soon, Americans who want a treat from home will have to seek out one of the seven remaining Burger Kings. That will be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Or we could settle for McDonalds. There are plenty of them.
