Last week, we talked about onigiri, a traditional Japanese dish… but right now, the price of rice in Japan is skyrocketing, making headlines every day.🍚💹
Of course, with the current economic situation, it’s not just rice—many other things are becoming more expensive as well. However, since rice is a staple food for Japanese people, it’s only natural that we’re especially sensitive to price changes.
White rice is also an essential part of a Japanese bodybuilder’s diet. In fact, you could even say that one of the advantages of bodybuilding in Japan is having access to plenty of rice.
That said, a certain Japanese bodybuilder who moved to the U.S. and achieved great results once mentioned that cutting weight in Japan is extremely difficult…!😋🍴💕
Just the other day, I visited one of Japan’s top rice-producing regions and got to try a variety of rice dishes.
Onigiri, sushi, katsudon… Once again, I was reminded of just how important rice truly is.
I really hope rice prices drop soon so that Kyosuke-kun can eat as much as he wants!
