Yesterday's post about the things lacking in Japanese technology was a little negative in tone, and since I'm trying to build up the courage to sign away my life for another year on JET I thought I'd try thinking more positive thoughts today. That's why I decided to write about my favorite Japanese food... Don Tacos! In Japan you can buy Doritos chips, but for some reason the kind they sell here tastes like total crap. Sometimes foreign food stores will have better tasting ones imported from Australia, but they usually cost a fortune and have suspicious expiration dates that extend well longer than they would back home. Pretty much anything with a strong flavour, such as curry or anything Mexican, tends to become very bland tasting when it is Japanized for this market. That's why Don Tacos is such a nice surprise because it tastes great and is even a little spicy. It's just one of the nice little things that keeps me going, and I recommend that you try them out if you haven't already. I just hope the Frente Corporation appreciates all the free publicity I'm giving them.



Update: Uh oh, the story I did yesterday has just been linked by Fark.com (one of the most popular news sites on the net). I think I'm in trouble now. They have a reputation for "Farking" websites by consuming all their bandwidth in a few minutes. Anyway, if you'd like to read their nerdy ramblings about my post then check it out here.
