Well. It has to happen.

Dad has to hold the stupid ball for this arc to make the son look good for once.

Just for this arc, he's ignoring the same "expensive isn't everything" philosophy he keeps telling his son.

yeah, it’s weird to see Kaibara go so straightforward. but maybe he’s losing on purpose again?
especially with the ecological theme, having things like shark fin soup presented as normal…? I got the impression that part of the point was that longevity food should be sustainable for the environment as well.

fun fact related to longevity and simple, frugal dishes: if I recall correctly, the initial study of the “healthy” Mediterranean diet that people in that area “eat every day”…was actually done during the month of Lent. so….not exactly what they’d normally be consuming.

anyways I’d also like to see more arcs where it isn’t “the person who presents second wins”
I know it’s easier to write, but…

oh, Kaibara got schooled.
but yeah, its not his style to stray to far into "ultimate" especially after that daily food speech

i was like, "shark fin? its not eco-ingredients nor common enough to be day to day food ingredients"

and thankfully he promptly got schooled for it.
