I have been in Japan for almost a year now. I can't believe it took me this long to try natto. Since I first arrived in Japan many coworkers and students have urged me to try natto and see how I like it. Well the other day at lunch I saw it on the menu and decided to give it a shot. Natto is not disgusting as some people have described it. But it does have a very peculiar taste. I have tried it, I always try new foods at least once, I can now say natto is not for me.  

I'm not sure if you know what Black Friday is. Every year, Thanksgiving falls on the last Thursday of November. It is a day to give thanks for what you have, and spend time with your family. Black Friday occurs the day after Thanksgiving, and throws every single value you celebrate on Thanksgiving day out the window. It tends to be chaotic and even dangerous, with people fighting each other and creating huge mobs just to get special savings on things they don't really need. I have no love for Black Friday, and so I worried a bit when I saw Japan was going to also start doing it. The behavior of Japanese people is very different from those of many Americans, so I don't think things will be as crazy. At least, I hope not.
