Please don't think me shallow-ish, but I really prefer my bowls of rice and lots and lots and LOTS of butter and shoyu piled on!

Donburi is by far my favorite. It can be quick and easy, or fancy too. Generally, I go for the fast kind a la Yoshinoya, though.

I like all of them. But I could only choose one. So I chose Ramen.

Ah, yes, udon 窶堋､窶堙??堙ｱ and soba 窶堋ｻ窶堙 forever. I could eat them for any meal at any time. Delish.
There's an excellent noodle shop in my area called 窶堋ｽ窶堙ｱ窶堙帚?堙 that I visit far too often (actually, not often enough).

wow, who made this poll....i hate you; this is so difficult...... I have the fortune to eat japanese food, and that's why i also have the misfortune to decide what i like the most out of all the japanese foods. i would have to say my favorite japanese foods are sukiyaki and karaage (japanese fried chicken). both are so delicious, and if i could, i would eat them everyday .... the karaage tastes awesome with japanese mayo and the soysauce with ginger, onions, and vinegar

Wow! I'm surprised that there are some non-Japanese people who like nattou.
There are some areas in Japan where people never eat nattou and they all say it's too stinky to eat, so I thought you have to be used to it to like it when you were a child.
Anyways, has anyone tried a sea cucumber? (It's called 窶堙遺?堙懌?堋ｱ in Japanese.)
I sometimes buy sliced onesﾂ like this

and I like the taste. But I would never wanna buy the whole thing and cook it by myself...

(Don't say they look like....eer...unko....)

To put it mildly, the darn things look like, well, turds!

All things considered, I can live without that stuff. And from what I've seen of natto, I can live without that as well!

Hey, sea cucumber tastes good. It has this gummy/chewy texture a lot like mushrooms and tastes about the same too but a bit more flavorful. It's used a lot in Chinese cooking usually added in soups or vegetable stews.

I'm wondering what's your favorite Japanese food. I have listed a few popular dishes; I admit I love all of them. Some of them, such as sushi and sashimi, I can never grow tired of.
Is there anything you can't stand?

Click to expand...

I love Sushi, my home made Tonkatsu (with apple/worcestershire sauce), Mochi (BOTH Japanese and Hawaiian cake versions) Unagi Kabanyaki, Japanese Fried Rice, Tempura, Okonomiyaki, Onigiri (preferably Ume/Bonito flavor), Doctored Up Ramen, Rice with Furikake or Ume or Takuan, Teriyaki, Hijiki Salad, Miso Soup, Goya Chanpuru, Pocky, Everyburger, Bourbon Raisin Sand, anything by Glico or Meji etc...

My fave sushi is Saba, Hamachi and Toro

I hate Natto, Sake Pickles, and Sea Urchin...

My 11 yr old is hooked on Pocky, Sushi and Pretz...

Im about to eat some Kinako dipped mochi (yummy!)

natto isn't awful tasting for me, but it's not one of my favorite japanese foods. my favorite natto is the natto made with ginger.
one japanese food i dislike is the japanese sour plum pickle. i ate a whole one, i had to spit it out immediately...it's extremely sour. it's like eating 20 of the most sour warheads in the world at one time.

hehe, them umeboshi 梅干し （うめぼし） are really something else arnt they. i like eating them on thier own beacuse they remeind me of sour sweets from home.

with rice is a completely different story. i just can't see the point in spoiling good rice in that way!

also, natto is brilliant. i love the stuff. i eat it nearly every morning and use it in lots of dishes.

Well, I'll gladly defer to someone who knows all about it. Heh! Perhaps I might give it a try, if I can only find it here!
