Notes since filming:
It’s funny that no one has called me on the fact that, when I filmed this, I didn’t realize that a tanuki and a raccoon were two different animals. Whoops!
Original video description:
Here’s a cool one: A Maruchan product sold at American Hmarts that I had assumed was only available in Japan! Maruchan’s Midori no Tanuki is a soy-and-dashi broth with soba noodles and a huge cake of fried tempura batter. I you love tempura, you’re going to want to check this one out.
