You mean peanut butter and honey PRE-mixed?? I love peanut butter and honey on toast. Didn’t know it was a Japanese thing!

I just returned from being with my son who has lived in Japan for three years. Matador was a good source of information. I discovered peanut butter with honey mixed in it, sweet tomatoes, and those little towels used to dry ones hands in the public restrooms. I loved the way the young women dressed, the Midtown museum building, and the pancakes shaped like fish. I was totally confused by the subway system. I am visually disabled and could not read any signs – the lettering was too small. I loved talking with the Japanese people I met on the subway.

Got the idea from your Blog: Culture in Yoiur Own Backyard or something like that. Talk about South or Central America. I figure you could’ve walked halfway there by now !
