No need to go to LA.

Does your local Stupidmarket have an oriental food section?

How about a Trader Joe's.

Edamame is readily available. Maybe you can steam the beans yourself?
Wasabi Peas
Shrimp chips.
Rice crackers
I am pretty sure I've seen Salmon Jerky @ TJ'S

Since Chili is sometimes in order - for your super bowl how about a big vat
of steaming Japanese Curry - it's readily available in super market
sections, in place of the pot roast use chili grind beef. - serve over
sticky rice. Sometimes 99 cent only stores or the Dollar stores have some
closeout Japanese foods.

Oh yes on the drinks side why not cold Saki on the rocks?
