It is not good for most of the Japan industry to be concentrated in one big city of Tokyo! After all, what if Mount Fuji erupts? You'll just have to dispose of your volcanic ash into the ocean! https://japannews.yomiuri.co.jp/society/general-news/20240906-209517/ It's not like you could somehow convince foreign buyers that Tokyo volcanic could be useful for industrial applications and they could buy it all up for recovery money! No way! That's impossible! https://www.sakurajima-kinkowan-geo.jp/sakurajima-kinkowan/industry/ If Mt. Fuji erupted right now as it is, places like Hokkaido and Okinawa would collapse economically! And there might be mass starvation because there's no Family Mart chicken available and McDonald's needs to have potatoes imported from all the way from a port city in Canada and the mere fact that a restuarant like McDonald's would be so widely available in a country where only 38 percent of the food required to feed Japan is actually grown in Japan ia a little concerning, isn't it? This is why there should be more animation studios located outside of Tokyo. A whole lot more! So places like Kagoshima could make money by promoting "Cool Japan" to foreigners! That's why something like this exists, doesn't it? https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGpGsGZ3lmbCv9kWifm8jGJnujzRC-LbN And Japan food could be "ketchup packets" that have a healthy amount of koji, dehydrated meat and vegetables that have a long shelf life if stored correctly and using various rehydrating processes, and maybe not consuming "roughly 20 percent of the edibles available in their environment, while other edible foodstuffs are shunned due to moral, religious, or esthetic considerations." https://kojidrink.jp/en/products/cz-00309500100?srsltid=AfmBOopwUYlDw2-nWYC3cYaXNO15Vp3AK00bDY7wtzKExykwgcRKg0dr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dried_foods https://www.asianstudies.org/publications/eaa/archives/making-sense-of-vietnamese-cuisine/ As well as recoginising the importance of human pathogens such as "pichia kudriavzevii" and "geotrichum" to make foods such as CHOCOLATE because local Japanese foods such as barley and BROWN RICE instead of white because that actuually has nutritional value could just as easily be used to make CHOCOLATE because some efforts by Danish and German food makers to do the same have proven sucessful and it's actually the case that most of the Japanese people who tried the REAL CACAO PLANT are the big Japanese community living in Brazil and neither you or I have tried the fruit of the plant which I imagine tastes delicious but the juicy fruit probably could only be grown in a place like Okinawa and there are millions of chocolate addicts who have grown old and died without ever having tried the cacao fruit and it's very tragic and sad so it doesn't matter what your Choco-Boorus taste like, I'm sorry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtR6o2BMA70 I wonder what cacao seeds would taste like with koji! These are various Japanese edibles! If you don't have the means to grow in garden plants, they are very cheap and can be dehydrated! https://shizuokagourmet.com/sansaiedible-wild-japanese-mounain-vegetables/ https://shichimi.wordpress.com/2012/04/18/wild-sustenance/ https://yjc.tokyo/edible-wild-plants-for-japanese-cooking/ https://www.tokyoweekender.com/food-and-drink/foraging-in-japan/ https://shun-gate.com/en/power/power_97/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3OmVuQiEgk https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%B2%BE%E9%80%B2%E6%96%99%E7%90%86 Oh, and since I went on about food... this is the first hamburger chain in Japan. It opened before McDonald's did. Please pay your respects. orz https://domdomhamburger.com/ The nearest Dom Dom in Kagoshima is located at 〒810-0034 ç¦å²¡çœŒç¦å²¡å¸‚ä¸å¤®åŒºç¬¹ä¸˜1-28-74 イオンスタイル笹丘B1F
