A japanese guy got reincarnated to another world and craving for some japanese foods? Makes sense to me, I don't see why people complaining about the obvious. I'm sure if the MC is, for instance, an Italian, he would crave for pasta, pizza, tomato sauce, etc. Because it's fucking obvious. He even failed to recreate them for many years even though he had helped people to make them back on earth, so it's not an instant success which makes sense to me too.
It's a trope for a reason, because it's fucking make sense, so of course many isekai manga uses this. But I guess haters just gonna hate anything huh.
