Irish resident in Japan admits defeat after seven years of natto
Original: 納豆
A woman from Ireland living in Japan for seven years has told Japanese media she still cannot overcome natto, the fermented soybean dish, saying she is 'really bad with it'. The story has drawn attention in Japan, where foreigners' struggles with the sticky, pungent food are a perennial talking point, prompting fresh debate about which Japanese foods outsiders find hardest to accept.
Why now: Stories about foreigners failing to acquire a taste for natto reliably spark debate in Japan about national food culture.
