I ate the same thing, two nights in a row. Lots of Japanese going on in this dish.

Not everyone likes Natto, but surprisingly I do. I think it is an acquired taste from a young age. Of course being told you are eating fermented soybeans isn’t always nice to hear, but growing up I don’t think I could pick if I wanted to eat it or not. Before I said I didn’t like something I had to try it first. Most of my friends can’t stand eating the brown beans, but I love it. It’s sticky and has an interesting texture, but mixed with the right stuff (rice, nametake mushrooms, nori, and some sprouts), it makes for a delicious and semi-nutritious combination.
