Oooh! I didn't know that about wasabi, even though I lived in Japan for many years. Honestly, I never ate hon wasabi even there. I think it's quite rare. I recommend trying something else that's extremely healthy and from Japan: natto. It's an acquired taste but it is very good for you.
Super helpful tip! Thanks, Autumn! I just Googled "natto" and as a vegetarian, I think I'd enjoy it. Appreciate you taking the time to read the post and weighing in. Very much looking forward to reading Chapter 2 of your book today.
Fun read Hilary.....and...where can I get some real Wasabi from that Wasabia japonica plant? Cheers!
Thanks, Edward!

.05% Italian! Why does that make so much sense to me. And thanks for the heads-up about Dolly’s album, will dial it up!
Happy Hanukkah (sp?) to you!
