Even a lot of Japanese won’t eat natto, mainly because they can’t stand the smell or dislike the slime. I understand you have to be from certain prefectures where it is customary to eat it. Unfortunately, my wife’s family is.

Natto are primarily a Kantō Plain (e.g., Tokyo metropolitan area) thing. Nobody west of Tokyo likes the stuff.

I once caught the last part of a Japanese "Iron Chef" epi, and natto was featured ingredient.

Only one judge, said "I actually like natto..." (subtitled).
