Girl has the survival instincts of a Koala

Do people even still worry or care about garlic breath? I feel like everyone was freaking out about it when I was a kid in the late 90s-early 2000s (and even then, I thought it was weird adults cared so much about it), but I genuinely haven’t heard it being brought up in the last decade at least.

Same here, genuinely love the little notes they include in the end. So thanks so much for it and the chapters themselves! On a side note, I used to like carrots as a kid but as an adult, I can only eat them raw. They’re way too sweet when they’re cooked.

Shimura seems like he’d honestly be a great husband. I hope he and Aya will be happy together.

Off the top of my head, “Yakumo wants to feed/Beauty and the Feast” and Dr Stone both had Oishinbo references (although thinking back on it, the Dr stone reference doesn’t support my theory). There’s definitely been others but I can’t remember them off the top of my head. 😞

The western equivalent would be going to get a late night kebab or McDonald’s or something I guess

You know if Yu just stopped trying so hard (and being so creepy), she’d probably have a much easier time becoming friends either way Koizumi.

I’d say meat floss is more of a rice accompaniment, like umeboshi or furikake. Makes me really crave some right now though. They only sell the Chinese stuff in stores here, but I want the Vietnamese one. 😭

As a side note, there’s something I’ve noticed that I find kind of interesting. At least in modern manga (or anything made within the last 15 years or so), whenever an Oishinbo or Yuzan reference comes up, the depiction seems much closer to how Yuzan was originally portrayed rather then this...

As an Aussie myself, I can confirm, nothing beats a Bunnings sausage sizzle.

Well, Kinjo just lost a LOT of points from me.

Yeah, but that was for “training”, so it’s totally okay. /s

Well, that was a bloody cop out.

Butter rice with soy sauce is delicious, I can indeed confirm

Perhaps ironically, Dan’s character appeals to me less than Kinjo’s. To put it bluntly, he comes across as rather fake to me. But perhaps he will change my mind, I have only known him for a few chapters after all.
