Haha, shiokara is one of my go to counter examples also for when people claim Japanese food is bland. I tend to eat just about everything and actually like that stuff, along with things like shirako, horumon, and kusaya (and natto).
Still, I’m glad the inaka has a lot more foreign options these days. When I first moved to Japan even stuff like Indian curry was rare. It’s a good thing Japanese food is really tasty, because having that be the only thing to eat on top of it being terrible would’ve been a really difficult time.
Is that what it is??? I don’t think I’ve ever had it since these might not be very common where I live. I actually like shirako, horumon, and natto but I’ve never even heard of kusaya. It must be a mainland thing that we don’t really have here. Gotta try it some day!
What in the…?
