Hi! This is "Donald the Nut" from the Nerd Rock band Three Day Stubble. I am here in the corner saying "See what fun things I find to eat, explain or simply share from Kyoto, Japan. Having already eaten some pretty weird stuff by western standards and maybe even sometimes by Japanese standards too, I can see there is a world of fun to be had here."
Here is a little history of the shows...
- I ate natto and have been quoted in print for saying "Some people compare it to the taste of dirty socks, but I don't think it's like that. People say that about cheese, don't they? Well, I love cheese and I love smelly natto".
- At Fushimi Inari Shrine I ate Sparrow!
- During Gion Matsuri I ate Squid and Fish on a stick.
- At Indoa's Coffee I ate wasabi ice cream.
- On Nishiki Street Market I ate 7 spice soft serve ice cream.
- In Arashiyama I ate Kyozengi sof serve tofu ice cream with mame and mochi.
- Under the Snack Friend sign I ate some dried squid.
- I recorded and explained about the loud summer insect called Cicada in English and Semi in Japanese.
- I read an original poem called "kawaige" which means "loveliness" that I wrote in Japanese based on the kanji character "気".
- I showed off and explained some traditional Japanese footware made of wood called Ippongeta.
- At Nishiki Street Market I ate Saba which is a fish called Mackerel in English.
- At Indoa's Coffee I had a coffee float with their famous lemon ice cream.
- At Futaba I ate their famous Mamemochi which is mochi with adzukibeans and beanpaste inside.
- As part of my snack kick I went to the Resident Resident's house and had fun with my "Cookie Friend"
- The snack kick continues... I love Japanese bakeries. I over indulged on an asparagus bacon bun, a croquet boat, and an egg triangle. I plan to bring you a bakery series in the future.
- Doraemon Santa the Nut goes to the Hub Pub for Halloween
