I remember eating them at festivals I went to, in Japan. They are really easy to make, and quite delicious! Here's the recipe:

Why Rice Makes For Great Meals

Eating is something that is required in order for one to stay fit and healthy. However, it can also be an enjoyable experience. The tastes, the smells, and sometimes the entire process are exciting and entertaining. Knowing that you are keeping your friends and family healthier with safe and thoroughly cooked food doesn’t hurt, either.
