BaristaX

a few of my friends think I am gross by eating Natto (Japanese fermented soy beans).
It all started when I was at my local Asian supermarket and noticed they sold natto there,
I've read all about the benefits and decided to try it out, at first it was weird, but after eating it for a few days, I really started to enjoy it.

anyone here also eats natto as a part of their meal plan?

here is a link for anyone that's interested.

I tried some at Vinhn Phat, this grocery store since I had seen them on iron chef, but I couldn't get into them.

Durian was another story. It's stinky like feet,. but taste good!

I'm half Japanese so I've been eating Natto since I was a baby and I love it. So yes, I do sometimes have it as a snack. It's yummy with sliced green onions in it as well :-)

I live in Japan and do like natto if it's stuffed in a rice ball.. however after reading that article I think I should take advantage of the fact that it's so easily available to me and start making it part of my regular diet. Thanks for the info!

I lived in Japan and it's the only thing I just could NOT bring myself to eat... It stinks like strong cheese!

well then, you should go out and get you some, forgot the brand name, but the package instead of soy sauce and mustard, came with just 1 packet of this seaweed mixture that was amazing, you don't by any chance know the brand I am talking about?

no problem!, I am trying to shed some more light on natto for others who are wondering what they can include that's healthy and very beneficial for them.
