Japanese Eel in its Best
I bought an eel. Yes, eel is in it’s best in winter, precisely in Feburary.
My grandmother said foods from China is bad, not to select Chinese. She knows everything. Yes, food from China is very dangerous, since Chinese food contains a great amount of harmful chemical substances.
Most Japanese believes eel’s best season is summer. But it’s nonsense. The superstition is born in Edo era.
Eel sellers had been confused in every summer, because eel is not sold in summer. Eel is winter food and deliscous in winter, otherwise it’s not good in summer. Then, an eel seller asked Gennai Hiraga, one of the best worker in Edo, to make eel sold in summer. Gennai said people that eel in summer is good for health then people began to buy and eat in summer. In these days, eel is believed as a summer food and people don’t know eel’s real taste.
Awful Shopper
Two girls sit beside of me.
Hearingly, the one girl bought too many goods a month. She said, the limit of her credit card had been 200 thousand yen, but her shopping activity often reaches to it, then she required the card company to make higher the limit. And she said it’s impossible to pay debt in one time. According to the chat, the company, BTMU, said her to pay debt in one time if she aquire to make hegher the limit.
I was so surprised about her terrible shopping. She buys more than 200 thousand yen with her card every month and makes debt every month. When will the debt be payed off? What is her peyment schedule? And make matters worse, she required the Bank to make the limit higher.
240 thousands people fall in bankruptcy every year, in Japan.
