Japan is a quirky country, but was a wonderful place to live and raise my family for 14 years.
It’s pretty much a “pig in a blanket” anyway.
Note to self: Move to Japan if Hillary gets elected in 2016, at least I can still enjoy breakfast....

I can imagine, they tend to stress work ethic in schools, even if their schools follow the more “route memorization” method of learning. Has to be far better than commie core.
My only fear moving there these days would be the Radiation concerns from Fukishima...
That and China knocking on their door constantly...
If I did move to Japan, I would consider moving to Hokkaido and working part time on a farm on the weekends, as 1. they need farm help and 2. the climate is near what I am used to and less hot inthe summer.
I have considered it, I would never live in Tokyo, too crowded and busy.
At least the Japanese like SPAM. And that make then OK with me!
I like the SPAM sandwich, LOL

The Japanese aren’t about to go to a Halal compliant menu like the British because Japanese are unapologetic about pigs being tasty and themselves not giving a crap about PC drivel.
I haven’t been to Japan, but I have been to China, and they don’t have the concept of eating different foods in the morning.
I used to like ketchup and relish on a hot dog along with a buttered and grilled bun. Dirty Harry wouldn’t approve, but his diet wasn’t great either.
Hot dog with ketchup and Tobasco, one of my favorites.
In Japan they eat fish for breakfast....
I don’t think breakfast was ever seen as something other than just another meal.
squid and corn? Are you nuts?
Everyone knows squid goes with pheasant or nothing!
Michigano, Japan
Eating something different for breakfast is a cultural thing, most of the world eats what’s left over from dinner the night before.
The landowner would have gotten more money selling out, but he planted that orchard and liked my brother's proposal. There are other farmers in similar positions, so definitely consider it.
BTW, he checks his fruit regularly with a Geiger counter and there have been no ill effects from Fukushima. He also deviates from the rote memorization script and the students and parents love the results. Not so long ago, the Japanese government granted him, his wife and son permanent resident status.
