Slog - Comments on Even my tastebuds are gagging http://slog.thestranger.com/2006/09/even_my_tastebuds_ar I am an ardent fan of trashy foods--my favorite party snack is cocktail weenies wrapped in bacon, covered in brown sugar and then baked until crisp--but everything about this sentence leaves me horrified: Jimmy Dean Chocolate Chip Pancakes and Sausage (on a stick). The picture doesn't help. ugh. Has anyone actually tasted this? Am I being snobby here?...

If you think you can stomach all that vile sh*t then go down to Uwajimaya and find a lovely little tub of natto. Don't be afraid! It's healthy and toothsome. (Giggle) Chop a little scallion, heat the natto in the microwave, and sprinkle the scallion on the heated natto. And enjoy! :-)

Go back to Tokyo, Sachi. The rest of Japan can't disagree with your more, and there is no sense dragging bad habits to this side of ocean. You should really have more respect for scallions..8-D

Seattle is full of inakamono(bumpkins)who believe they are cultured. Feeding them a few fermented soybeans will only cause them confusion with regard to their quaint ideas about Japanese culture. Some things are too difficult for Seattleites and most Japanese to understand...Natto is one of them...

Now Sachi, let's not give anyone any ideas...

You could dip your stick into it the Natto, wrap with a thick skin of tofu and fry the whole mess. A Tofu/Natto on a stick (kushi). After frying, dip the stick in a bowl filled with Bulldog Sauce to kill the Natto taste and smell. Make sure you have copious amounts of Osake of Shochu to accompany your fried Natto on stick and to deaden its odious taste.
