I am relieving my natto tasting experience. I too love Okra but I gagged (in a restaurant) when I opened my mouth to have my taste buds meet my olfactory senses. Can’t do it.

You get an "E" for effort 😁! What is your favorite okra recipe?

My two kids (3 and 6years old) LOVE natto. They would ask for it even for snack! My husband is a huge fan as well. He even wanted to do a Natto trip on a motorbike around Japan and write a book about it. I am more on the once in a while type (lol).

I am super impressed but not surprised Catherine! I love the broad palate your kiddos are developing! There's your book right there: Natto to Poutin and Everything in Between :-)

Tried Natto for the first time 14 years ago and didn’t do so again for another 10 🤪. It is an acquired taste for sure.

I think I would call it "Notto"---not an okra fan! Great read!
