I give my cat a little bit of tuna every night so she'll come in before the foxes come out. My mom's boyfriend bought her some bonito flakes..... Oh my god, she snubs tuna for the stuff. It's cat heaven...
You know, you can't really yell at the guy about Japanese pronunciation because he's not Japanese. You pocky munching anime otaku need to really simmer down.
@ashlayblues i know what you mean over it its good eats i love how he was basing it on the old snl skit and such and yet people start getting offended over things in to good eats they dont get it its COMEDY and as some of my friends say 'its not funny when some one gets offended, its hilarious they are over a stupid thing' i think that is what i am saying you know
the reason the "japanese" shopkeeper sound so fake is because its a parody of Jim Belushi's Samurai skits when he was on SNL just search hulu or youtube for "Samurai Delicatessen"
Alton looks tired and depleted, I think he needs to put on 10 ibs, then he would look a bit healthier. I mean, look at his neck! Still love him though :P
I'm kind of insulted with this episode and I'm not even Japanese. I'm Korean and I saw a couple Korean products in his Japanese stash.
-__- but it's nice to know i'm not the only one irked by anime otaku who must make their obsession clear and known in ever possible way.
Does it bother anyone to hear really bad accents for Asian languages. It just sounds like they put too much emphasis in ALL the syllables or something.
To be fair.. if you heard his british or scottish accents.. he's not doing them any justice either. Southern's about all his little throat can take him
@Crimsanity Just because something is a product from a different country doesn't mean that the product originated from there. He probably had difficulty finding some of the stuff. I'm German and I am studying in America. I'm not offended if I go to Walmart and see them selling Bratwurst or Sour Kraut, claiming it's "From Germany". Food is food.
@silksarii Actually, Alton at one point made pad thai using an extremely authentic recipe and method, and did the same with miso soup in this episode. If at some point he did do a show on Korean food, there's no doubt he'd give it the same treatment. If there's one chef on the food network who respects authenticity, it's Alton. And as for the spice, he's done recipes for spicy pickled carrots, hot tamales, five-alarm chili, and extremely potent salsa, so kimchi should be a snap for him.
Well your opinion of anime indicates that you likely formed your view of it from the popular stuff on TV. However, some anime has genuine artistic merit.
So look around a bit more before judging anime or the good taste of its fans.
Don't assume, I don't watch Anime on Tv, and the only good Animies I have seen are 1: Mermaid Forest and 2:One Piece, the rest are series on tv t hat do not interest me, and that the fans ruin,
If I want to see quality anime I will watch the movies, such as Ponyo, Little Nemo, Ect
SOME Anime does, Death Note has very pretty art, but I doubt the fans have good taste I hav eseen their idea of art, some is good, the rest is buttsex.
Difficult to do if all you watch is a show about a 12 year old sexual deviant with Tourette's Syndrome who claims to be a ninja, you must admit. Actually... now that i think about it, are there ANY action animes that have a good depiction of the Japanese culture outside of the ancient cultures?

The worst are ppl who feel like they have to tell the world they love anime and stuff like that... yeahh.
