Natto

So it's much like jellied eels then shit left to rot. Then served as a side dish. Think I'll pass.

 

Full article here.

Me, I haven't tried it yet, but seeing how I already hate all rotten-on-purpose foodstuff (beer, cheese, ...) I'm sure I wouldn't be able to get (or keep) any of that crap down anyways. Usually I'll try anything once, but not this.

 

Perhaps boiled Okra with some Kikoman, at least almost as gooey.

I grew up on Natto, have to have a fix at least once a week.

Anyone try "Natto" Powder? A Korean blend, now that is an acquired taste!
I'll stick with the fresh er frozen rotten beans myself, mix in a little Miso paste.

 

Where's the option on the poll for "I think it's scary"?

Really, I'm afraid of it. Then again I'm afraid of a lot of things.

 

Ah Natto is wonderful stuff, I am looking forward to Monday when I am back in Japan and will be having a nice breakfast of Rice and Natto, Miso soup and vegetables, a small amount of grilled salmon and some pickles.

Also look forward to buying the various types of Natto that there are again, I am getting withdrawl symptoms being in god forsaken australia...

 

I'd try that!
