Something about Japan
Food in Summer
What do you eat in the heat in your country? Many Japanese people think
of watermelons. Speaking of watermelons, do you know the unique game in
Japan called suika-wari, or watermelon splitting? If you know the Mexican
piñata , it is similar. Usually people play suika-wari on the beach and at festivals or community events. Players are blindfolded and carry a stick about the
same size as a baseball bat. The player walks to a watermelon on the ground
and tries to break it. Sometimes they are spun around before playing and they
may be dizzy, so they count on the audience’s cheers and their best guess to
find the watermelon.
Nagashi-somen, or flowing noodles, is also famous. It is difficult to explain nagushi-somen, but basically noodles flow with water in a long trough
and diners catch them with chopsticks and eat them. It’s hard to catch noodles with chopsticks even for Japanese. Why don’t you try to catch some
nagashi-somen?
We like to eat kakigori, or shaved ice, on extremely hot days. Popular flavors are fruit-flavored syrup, including blue Hawaii and rainbow, or Japanese
green tea and sweet red beans and others. If you want to eat kakigori, please
look for the flag below. If you eat kakigori too quickly, you may get a headache. Please be careful not to eat too much.
