> Well one thing that is sort of notable about Japan/Onigiri but left off this blog is that they will all contain fish.
They don't. There are onigiris containing beef or chicken. Also shrimp, except if you count that as fish.
Edit: of course, I reacted to this before reading the next sentence about vegetarianism... There are also rice balls with nothing else than salt, usually called shio-musubi. And as others have pointed out, there's also umeboshi.
