I love the food in Japan… it covers most of the flavours.
Prices are a little different:
full dinner of salad, rice and curry ¥450
3 apples at the grocery store ¥395
2 bananas ¥150
Fresh fruit is pricey… even without the ¥1200 watermelon… ( ¥100 = $1 approx)
I was thinking this morning, as I was eating some noodles, how much I missed Potatoes.
Tonight, at a local festival, one of the stands was selling steamed whole potatoes…. on sale for ¥500
I bought one… and I watched as he cut it open and put 1/4 pound of butter on it, …..and corn.
He asked me if I wanted a pink sauce…. somehow I can’t think of anything pink that would have made it taste any better, so I declined.
It was good… but a little tough to eat with chop sticks.
