Y'all add some butter and maybe a little milk when cooking as well?I wonder if the Japanese make and eat mashed potatoes at all. Where I'm from, that's a very common dish for home cooking, also enjoyed by kids.
Many use butter. I add light cream (15%) and a little milk. It's pretty much the same thing, I'd say, since butter is milk fat, but I don't usually have butter in my fridge. I prefer oil when baking, not butter, but I'm not going to add oil to mashed potatoes, haha.Y'all add some butter and maybe a little milk when cooking as well?
Japanese love french fries (and potato wedges) and stuffed whole baked potatoes, and even potato salad, but are not so much into straight mashed potatoes with dairy. When that shows up it's usually as a minor part of a hamburger steak set meal at family restaurants like Jonathan's, like as a perfectly circular bed (they have molds) for the steak.I wonder if the Japanese make and eat mashed potatoes at all.

Actually, reading this again, I would guess the feeling is 'Why would we eat THIS mild fluffy stuff when we can eat white rice instead?' Potato's advantages, for them, is that it can have chunks/sticks and they don't have to feel bad about adulterating potatoes will all sorts of (tasty) crap that they'd feel bad about disrespecting the rice with. Only for the center of an onigiri.Japanese love french fries (and potato wedges) and stuffed whole baked potatoes, and even potato salad, but are not so much into straight mashed potatoes with dairy.
Probably just a regular checkup. Their health care system is well managed enough that you can just go to a hospital for a cold or flu, which would be unthinkable in a primitive hellhole like the US. You'd be waiting in the ER for 8 hours and probably catch measles from one of our troglodites.7/10 not enough Mugi-chan.
I was a little weirded out by how casually the old lady said she was going to the hospital though.
