This already got my hopes up when it didn't have the usual idiotic yen-equivalent money system, but then it had to introduce that even more moronic "hairy barbarians don't even know how to eat" before the enlightened Japanese person shows them the way. I'm not saying Japan wouldn't have a rich and deep culinary culture, it sure does, but at the end of the day, a good chunk of it was imported from abroad, the same as everywhere in the world. You can tell this stuff was never intended to be read by anyone outside of Japan.
