What Japanese foods HAVE YOU TRIED that you didn't like?
I was adventurous and tried as many new foods as I could while I was in Japan, and most of them I liked. I'm usually pretty easy to please when it comes to food. The only things I didn't like were unagi (eel), and umeboshi (pickled apricot).
unagi
Oh, and I can't stand nattou. The texture, smell, and taste is disgusting. It doesn't even taste like something that should be eaten. And in izakayas they'd sometimes serve chicken joints (don't know the Japanese name). Didn't like those. Usually that's the part of the chicken that gets thrown away.
But I'd like to stress that I really like Japanese food. There's only a few things that just didn't appeal to me.
(Feel free to help me with the names of some of these things. And please tell me of things you'd like to add to the poll and I'll add them.)
