Japan Interesting Snacks

KaKa — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 00:27:14 +0000

Japan has a lot of interesting little snacks.
These are very rare in other countries.
The character of Japanese snacks is very light taste.
Perhaps, light taste is in order to avoid the obsession with food.

The Food for Strong Man: Japanese Sumo Hot Pot

KaKa — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 00:23:32 +0000

Sumo is a competitive contact sport where a wrestler attempts to force another wrestler out of a circular ring or to touch the ground with anything other than the soles of the feet. The sport originated in Japan, the only country where it is practiced professionally.

The Japanese consider sumo a gendai, though the sport has a history spanning many centuries. The sumo tradition is very ancient, and even today the sport includes many ritual elements, such as the use of salt for purification, from the days sumo was used in the Shinto religion.

Life as a rikishi is highly regimented, with rules laid down by the Sumo Association. Professional sumo wrestlers are required to live in communal “sumo training stables” known in Japanese as heya where all aspects of their daily lives—from meals to their manner of dress—are dictated by strict tradition.

KaKa is very fortunate to have the opportunity to try Japanese Sumo Hot Pot…Delicious!
But after dinner，how about KaKa’s body size…
