" "Hmm, slightly bitter, with a rich taste that's also sweet..." "It's wonderful! " "Its bringing tears to my eyes..." "This flavor makes us recall the things we had long forgotten about... That mountain where I chased after the rabbits... that river where I went fishing for carp... It's the taste of the homeland of all the Japanese people..."

"The trio of flavors is wonderful... ... but I'm very impressed that you remembered that turnips taste better with fat or oil!!”
