That's okay, I'm just giving my personal opinion. Be that as it may, it seems that many Japanese people have quite a poor sense of taste. Because the standard of deliciousness is a brand name, like Kurobuta pork, clams, rice, and so on.
Once they find out that something they had been paying a lot of money to eat was fake, they stop buying it and start buying regular food, but it is the same thing.

Why did you come all the way to America for a bad meal ? If you want to complain, go live in Japan and eat good Japanese food.
I came here to get married and have children ?
People like that complain about trivial things.
They want to agree that it's wrong, so what ? is it?
If they come here with a purpose, they focus on that and don't care about the food.
I didn't come all the way to America to eat good food. ? Even in America, if you look for it, there are many things that are better than in Japan.
Hamburgers are definitely better and cheaper here.  Ice cream is also better and there are more varieties here. It depends on each person.
Sashimi is originally Japanese food. 、 It's impossible to find the same level of food here, and it's impossible to live here as if you were in Japan. You can't get the same level of food here, and you can't live here as if you were in Japan.

> Where do you shop rather than being cheated ? ?
I'm talking about Japan. Most recently, there is the clam scam. Only 3% of them are real, and it seems to have been going on for over 20 years.
It is well known that black pigs are also constantly disguised. It is troubling because the amount sold is always higher than the amount shipped.
It is now common knowledge that brand-name rice is blended with ordinary rice. The same goes for mineral water. It is sometimes caught, but it is just the tip of the iceberg.
The reason why this happens is because the difference in taste cannot be detected. It all comes out through whistle-blowing. Many people find chemical seasonings tastier than soup stock made from kombu and bonito.

On a different note, there are quite a few foods that cannot be imported from Japan in the US due to additive problems. Japan is the country with the highest number of Alzheimer's and cancer patients in the world, and this may also have an effect.

Tasty or tasteless
Expensive or cheap

If you like it, it's fine
Money is just a piece of paper
Money can't go to the other side
Some things you pay for but can't get

Real or fake? ?
You pay for happiness
You pay for self-satisfaction
You don't want to spend money anyway

In the end, even if you do research and find the right price, it will be a very expensive purchase when you add up the time spent on it

On a different note,
I heard that there are many old people who got married by a marriage scam and they were happy


They were shunned by their families and they were not happy even if they had money
They left their property to the last woman who would take care of them
If it's okay with him, it's okay
Money is just a piece of paper

Even if it's a lie, consumption can satisfy the soul
If you don't want to be cheated, do thorough research before you buy ?

Just as Japanese people find American rice unpalatable, Americans find Japanese food unpalatable. Many people cannot eat sashimi. In the end, it's what you grew up eating. So whether it tastes good or not is just my personal opinion.
However, even if I think it is not tasty, there are people who think it is tasty, so I don't say it.
If asked, I try to answer that I personally don't like it.

Personally, I can't enjoy a meal with someone who has a lot of negative comments, so I think it is a good idea to be too particular.

I wonder why some people still call them chemical seasonings, they are now called umami seasonings
I guess you are talking about Ajinomoto, but it is not harmful to the body because the manufacturing process is completely different from the old days
And the umami ingredients are glutamate for Ajinomoto and glutamate for Kombu
. But bonito is inosinic acid
Therefore, the dashi broth with kombu and bonito that you mentioned and ajinomoto are different, about the same as miso soup and Chinese soup
So, there is no inosinic acid in ajinomoto only dashi broth, so no one would say ajinomoto dashi is better if both are used and if there is, it is because ajinomoto only has inosinic acid.

It's called blended rice, not branded ( lol )

The expensive Alaskan and cheap Chilean salmon is not farm-raised, so it is frozen once to kill the parasites.
Salmon ( mainly from Russia ) is caught in the sea even if it is wild, and is not frozen properly, so it has parasites, so I try not to eat it raw
If it is labeled "farmed", it is medicated, so no parasites, although it is marinated in coloring and antibiotics.

Just be careful with ground meat. Sometimes they sell leftovers from the day before covered with something new.

What?

all of them
you're asking me zero or 100 ?
I don't know that much

I believe there is a law in Alaska, USA that prohibits certain species of fish from being caught in salt water and that includes salmon
. Salmon that come back to the river to breed would become extinct if caught in the ocean
Maybe they catch them in the river, take the eggs and sperm, artificially hatch and breed them, and return them to the river ? I think they freeze the meat afterwards and distribute it
And Alaska, or rather, the United States, has a salmon farming system. And Alaska, or rather, salmon farming in the US was banned due to water pollution
So, Alaskan salmon is 200% natural. I don't know if it's from the ocean or the river, but the ocean ones would be illegal.

34 Baikin-san

When I bought ground meat at the supermarket, sometimes the inside was gray, and I was disappointed that I had chosen the meat that was about to go bad.

Then, when I saw Baikin's post, I was convinced that this was a new guy and that he had been fooled, but no matter how I look at the ground meat I bought recently, there is no trace of the new one being topped up. I looked it up, and as the article below says, the gray inside is not rotten, it's just not oxidized and red yet.
Is the minced meat that Mr. Baikin returned from Cosco really new and covered ? or can you tell immediately by looking at it ❓

I read it. I see, you say that even if the redness is gone, it does not mean that it is all rotting. From now on, if the discolored area starts to smell or become sticky, I will judge that it has started to rot.


Thank you.


Nevertheless, I once went to the meat department with my feet after returning the product and called an attendant in the work area to open a pack of ground meat on display to make sure the inside was as red as the outside before buying it. So what was the discoloration on the inside?

I basically agree. Food in general is better in Japan.
Pizza and burgers are probably better in the US. But as a Japanese, I can't eat such things all the time. I think salads are better in America. American raw vegetables are more vigorous than Japanese raw vegetables. When I went back to Tokyo, if I wanted to have an American style salad, I had to go to a stylish place like green brothers to have a salad. Salads at izakaya (Japanese style pubs) are a bit different. My friend who has a bad mouth said to me, "It's not like feeding horses, why do you eat so many raw vegetables?
