At least it's not durian! XD Natto has nothing on the smell of durian.

Food: I could eat eel all day long. I don't care HOW you cook it (if you even cook it!) I'll eat it. I loooove eel.

Snack: The japanese have something they do to chocolate that blows hershey and the swiss out of the running. I don't know what it is, maybe the sesame oil, instead of corn oil or something. It's always so smooth and creamy and mild.

Drink: Aloe juice. I love it's tartness. I don't know why the US hasn't picked up on this.

This response totally made me drool!

And I'm with Zag about the eel. I fecking looooove it.

I eat a lot of Korean food but I think a lot of the same dishes are
considered Japanese too.

I will skip butchering the korean names, since I can only say them and
not properly spell them, but I like:

Bean paste or kimchi stew
Pickled daicon radish
Dried squid
Red bean cakes and red bean ice cream
Boba or Bubble tea (any flavor is good!)

And this cold buckwheat noodle soup served with cold roast beef, zucchini,
a boiled egg and sometimes slices of pear. Poor in some vinegar
and chow down! It's perfect on a hot summer day.

Edit: I looked it up, it's called Mul Naengmyon.

I have a Korean bakery near me that advertises bubble tea. I want to try it soooooooooo bad but never had a chance to. Can you tell me more about it please?

I also like the various japanese gummy candies our local asian market sells. By the way, has anyone tried the GIANT Pocky? I need to get a box of that, lol. Darn, here I am blabbing on about foods. My tummy is starting to talk.

Especially when I glance at the above picture.

Just tell me where to send it love, and whether you want chocolate or strawberry.

Also, Have you seen the new sweet potato flavored pocky?
My favorite will always be pumpkin tho.

You should definitely try it! Totally addictive and there's tons of flavors
to try. I'm absolutely hooked

Boba tea is a drink made with fresh fruits, milk, and crushed ice to create a
healthy milk shake. You can also find drinks that are made of powdered
flavoring, creamer, water, and crushed ice. Other kinds are made with
various flavored teas, coffees and such. At the bottom are tapioca pearls,
which are chewy and fun. The drinks are served in clear cups with a large
(wide) straw so you can suck up the pearls while you drink.

(I honestly couldn't describe that in a non-perverted way, sorry!

I don't think they sell it there, Cloud. But they might! And if not, they should!
