Osechi
We have traditional New Year's Food called "Osechi" in Japan.
I buy Osechi at a supermarket every year.
This year, I bought a three layer boxes of Osechi.
There were many kinds of dishes in each box, and each dish was put in a small container.
I loved some of them, but there were some I didn't enjoy.
Most of them are traditional old fashioned food that have been passed down for a long time, but some of them are really tasty.
Those New Year's Food are called Osechi.
I want to try to explain one of them in my next entry.
日本には「おせち」という伝統的なお正月の食べ物があります。
私は、おせちを毎年お店で買います。
今年は、三段の箱のおせちを買いました。
いろいろな種類の料理がそれぞれの箱に入っていて、一つ一つの料理は小さな入れ物に入っていました。
私は、その中のいくつかは大好きなんですが、でもあまり好きじゃないものもありました。
ほとんどの料理は昔から受け継がれて来ている古臭い伝統的な料理ですが、すごくおいしいものもあります。
そのようなお正月料理全部をおせちと言います。
その中の一つを次の投稿で説明してみたいです。

If you always go to the same one, it might be more natural to use "the supermarket". If you say "a supermarket" it gives the idea that you might go to different ones each year
This year, I bought a three layer boxes of Oseboxes of Osechi with three layers eachi.
When talking about a plural noun, eg: "boxes", I feel like it's most natural to use a relative clause after the noun
There were many kinds of dishes in each box, and each dish was put in a small container.
When using "kinds of" what follows is singular.
I loved some of them, but there were some I didn't enjoy.
Most of them awere traditional old -fashioned foods that have been passed down for a long time, but some of them are really tasty.
The plural of food is foods. It's a little odd, so might not be immediately obvious when to talk about food (collective) or multiple distinct foods. If you're talking about in general, use "food", but if you are talking about multiple kinds of food (like here), then "foods" is appropriate
Those New Year's Ffoods are called Osechi.
I want to try to explain one of them in my next entry.
Feedback
In England we don't really have any traditional New Year's foods. In my family we often have a roast dinner for New Year's Day, though.

Thank you so much for your corrections. I'm curious about food in the UK, the US, and some other countries. I liked fish and chips when I went to the UK.

English roast dinner is lovely - we usually eat it on a Sunday or for holidays. It usually consists of roasted meat (eg: chicken, beef, pork, lamb, gammon) with things like roast potatoes, roast carrots, roast parsnips, peas, yorkshire puddings, and gravy.

One single 3-layer box? Or 3 layers as in a stack or pile of boxes?

Feedback
I am not sure if osechi should be capitalised here. I Googled it and it seems like it shouldn't be. Typically only the names of people, places, or organisations are capitalised in English (eg. Jane, London, Harvard University), which are called proper nouns. But there are definitely exceptions so if there is a reason to capitalise it then just disregard this feedback.
Overall, excellent work!

Thank you so much for your corrections.
A three-tiered box, or a set of three layer box might be better?
