My major problem with life in Japan was all on me. I was spoiled as a child and only ate a few things , mostly junk. I hated seafood/fish , hated rice , hated almost all vegetables , didn't like most soups and noodles. If I couldn't go back to base to eat , I would find an American style hotel with a restaurant that served American style food. After my 2 year tour in Japan was over , I weighed just 95 pounds. After I got married , my days as a fussy eater were soon over. At 66 years old , I still find the 2 years in Japan were the best 2 years of my life.
