If you have no mental illness nor have you had any history of a mental illness, and you can claim you are 'reasonably' sane...
then this should look absolutely scrumptious too you

If it doesn't, then I highly recommend you too your local asylum >.>
The looney bin if you will.

It looks delicious to me, but what is it? It looks like a sort of savoury custard.

With a little soy sauce? I must try natto. :)

I'd be scared to try natto. Let's say I'm in Japan and it is offered to me. I know it's rude to turn it down. I'd be scared that I just wouldn't like it. I've read that it's definitely an acquired taste and that even some Japanese don't like it.

That aside, I do wish I could go to a real sushi restaurant and a real raamen one.

Oh yeah, speaking of "non-Japanese" running Japanese like places. I was watching No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain, and he went to a sushi restaurant in either Texas or New Mexico that was run and owned by a Chinese woman, and the sushi chefs were all Mexican. An interesting combination, eh?

That's how it is in 90% of "Japanese" restaurants I know of in the US.

ETA: Don't feel bad about saying no to natto if it's offered to you. Everyone will understand :)

To be completely honest, I've never been to one that didn't seem to be run by Japanese people. It's just not traditionally a sushi place, because they allow one to buy other foods in there. For instance, I mentioned in another topic that I had sukiyaki in one of them, and fell in love with that dish. *Obviously hungry* lol But, for a sushi restaurant, the only thing that should be served is sushi alone, not stuff like negimayaki or tenpura dishes or donburi dishes, etc.

That'd be nice, but if offered, I think I'd still try it. "Don't knock something until you try it", I always say. ^_^

Do you know what brand the natto came from?

Natto is not bitter, not from what I remember. But it does have a funny taste.
My mom and grandma can eat natto plain, I find it disgusting. But hey, they like natto.

I can only eat natto with rice, egg, and furikake.
