    This is what Japanese people eat for breakfast, it’s basically their version of beans on toast called Natto:

      Some* Japanese people eat it. Even among them it’s not universal enjoyed.

        Tastes kinda like peanut butter though and it’s surprisingly good in sushi rolls where the texture can absorbed by the rice somewhat, especially when there’s some other veg involved too.

        It’s definitely slimy but if I had to pick one “chunky snot” texture food it’d be raw oysters. I like oysters and natto both, but I can see how people with texture issues are turned off.

        It’s not a very fun meal due to the smell and mess it can make if you’re not careful. The taste isn’t awful but it’s not something I’d go out of my way to eat again.

      I personally love it. Add some soy sauce and mustard, stir until foamy, enjoy.

      I get that some people won’t get over the texture, but people like okra as well so…
