Why don't the Japanese 'cook'?
Their one famous food is a raw slab of fish on a ball of white rice
I also hear they put raw eggs over rice too?
And even sometimes use rice as an alternative to bread because they can't be bothered with actually baking bread
And their ice cream is just rice pounded up into a ball called "mochi"?
What the heck is with these guys?

also they use rice instead of bread sometimes because wheat isn't native to japan you dingo

Rice isn't native to Japan either. Wheat isn't native to Europe.

It was there in ancient history though, long before wheat. Hell the Dutch didn't even find Japan for a few hundred years to trade them guns to kill each other during their civil war so I doubt they had access to wheat.

Wheat didn't come from Europe. It's an Asian plant.

Rice still got to Japan substantially faster and was a staple crop. Before rice they just ate nuts off trees and ran around in the mountains.

> secondary crop derived from wheat
Therefore the wheat was a primary/staple crop that was in Europe at the time.

Japan is a weird place my friend, strict rules you must follow in societry combined with intense shame instilled in you from birthu about nearly everything you do wrong oddly enough makes for a very strange fucking place full of very strange people.

How exactly do they they instill intense shame in their children for doing wrong? I mean, how do they go about it? Just asking for ... a friend.

>> No.8637042

>>8637036
When they do wrong you dont comfort them and tell them everything is okay we all make mistakes, give them the cold shoulder tell them YOU HAVE BRANGU GREATO SHAMEU ON DISARU FAMILRY and half neglect them for a week or two.

They cook all sorts of stuff. Grilled mackerel is a popular thing. Ever been to a teppanyaki place? I'm guessing no. Want some octopus tentacles chopped up and fried into little balls of batter? They have that too.

tl;dr OP is totally uneducated about one of the world's great culinary traditions.

While that's true, the point was wheat was in Europe thousands of years ago.
