DO NOT EAT.

Hi guys:-) today, I want u to introduce food you cannot eat. Look at the pic.
It looks delicious, but actually, these are candles.




green soybeans and beer


Takoyaki


cakes

sushi

Recently, the sales of candles have been increasing because we had a very strong earthquake in Kanto area. Most of houses had power outage and candles were useful. In summer, we use air conditioner and consume a lot of electricity. It causes lack of electricity, so government may implement the planned power outage in summer.

Candles are helpful when power outage happen. A lot of people think they want to spend the time with aroma candles or unique candles. Aroma candles make us feel relaxed and flame of candles make us feel relaxed as well. according to research, to sit one place for a long time make people irritated or feel stress, but if there is a candle and see the flame, that kind of feeling is disappeared. And candles emit negative ion. Negative ion is good for our health, and also it would helpful if you want to concentrate on your work.

In conclusion, candles help us to be relax and health.

Why don't you buy your favorite candles and enjoy candle life this summer?

I like aroma candles, but I would recommend unique one as I introduced at first. I have some cake shape of candles. it will use not only candles but also as an interior. Fragrance are sweet like real cakes and it makes me happy.

Here is the info how to make sweets candles.

recipe for vegetarian and vegan

Hi, today is a very hot day!!!!! I will have ice cream today!!!!! I should!!! lol

BTW, we learned about vegetarianism and we did 24 hours vegetarian challenge.
I became vegan and it was very hard for me. I could not eat any animal products, but I wanted to eat meat. So I searched food for vegan on the internet and I found good recipe.



Can u guess what it is?

It is fried chicke......no, fried tofu. but taste and texture is like chicken nugget.

You chould use cotton tofu, silken tofu is too soft to make it.
At first, you have to freese tofu. and after thaw, plz juice tofu well. by juicing well, the texture become like chicken.

then, you season tofu same as fried chicken and fried.

↓this is my recipe of seasoning

soy sauce: two teaspoon
sake:two tea spoon
ginger: 1/2 of teasopoon
garlic: 1/2 of teaspoon
(sugar: one tea spoon)←if you like


it tastes similar to chicken nugget, but calories are half of fried chicken, and it is not oily,it is light, so even if you have a poor appetite because of the heat, you can eat.
in summer, i recommend to eat fried tofu with grated raddish.:-)

it will get hotter and hotter from now, so if you know good recipe for summer heat, plz tell me.

strange snacks and drinks in Japan

I found a bit shocking and interesting news in web site and I want u to introduce the news today.

In this article, Top 10 weirdest Japanese snacks and drinks for foreigners are introduced.

Writers said ,"Japan has become one of the most shocking nations on the planet.""The only thing left really is concentrating on the more adorable kind of Japanese zaniness that relates to their odd food choice."

10. Candy squid

9.Cheese drinks
8.Rose sweat gum


7.cream collon biscuits.
6.Curry lemonade



5.Scallops and Mayo flavored chips
4.Bizzare pepsi flavors



3.Roasted baby crabs



2.Eel soda

1.Meat flavored ice cream

So what do u think about these snacks and drinks?

Candy squid, and collon biscuits are quite common and familiar food and I think roasted crabs look delicious. But how about others? others are not familiar food not only for foreigners but also for Japanese.

Foreigners may misunderstand that these are common snacks and drinks in Japan, so they said Japanese choose odd food, but actually, it is not true.

Japanese buy them as a souvenir and enjoy just once or a few times.

so I do not want foreigners to misunderstand Japanese people have a strange palate.

Have u ever tried strange snacks or drinks?

I have had Genghis Khan caramel. The taste was terrible, but that kinds of snaks would help to make people laugh and good atomosphere.
