not that i doubt you, but how the HELL can a japanese person NOT know what takoyaki is...that's like f*ckin' impossible....muri, muri.

YEA I KNOW, thats why i was surprised. BUT, see the store teriyaki was a fast food restaraunt so maybe non-japanese people worked there :crazy: so im really not sure why but they didnt know what takoyaki was? next time im not going to eat at a fastfood. im gonna go check out bistro's and see.

The only other person that I know of here is Geezer.

:crazy: everyone i konw in real life who tried it says its not good. i tried it the second time just to see if maybe that one restaraunt didnt make it good, and it still didnt taste good. oh well, i want to try alot of japanese food but its hard here in toronto, here you can liek ONLY get chineese food. its hard to find a japanese restaraunt :puppydog:

Steak, Polish Sausage and Cajin Sausage, Potatoe Salad, and a Garlic bread for dinner. Then a slice of chocolate cake w/cherry inside. Yummy....think i should drink some milk now

Whomever you asked could not have been Japanese...there is absolutely no way they could not have known what takoyaki was..unless they are Japanese Canadian and know nothing about Japanese food or culture....that's like askin' an American if they've ever heard of a hamburger.......it is a rhetorical question.

There was one in Huntington Beach, but I'm not sure if it's there anymore... :headscratch:

lol qilver you live in OC? I once read an article in which a resident there said that the beach in OC is not as nice as the one that is featured in The OC and that we have all been misled. haha.

Btw, besides fastfood (hotdogs and hamburgers), any food that "represents" America?

Yeah I agree. We do love our beef in many forms. :D

Plus don't forget our traditional turkey at Thanksgiving time. :good:

LOL speaking of meatloaf I had a whole one last night, it was pretty good, but I want some corn beef :yippee:

A whole meatloaf??? Daaaaanggg.


Taters, spuds, Idahos = Potatoes. ;)

LOL I may be small for my size.. 5'9" 125Lb but haha I can eat a whole pizza as well :)

Beef can come in corn form?? :crazy: lol or is it corn mixed with beef?

Gosh, all are Americans but people in different regions have different accents! I noticed that only on reality shows like Survivor when the old famer spoke with some accent that was different from the rest that lived in cities like New york. Otherwise, the people speaking in dramas speak "city-like".

Btw, Hurricane Katrina was so scary. I saw the destruction of New Orleans and went :shocked:. It was like the tsunami of south asia. It happened so near to my country! If the waves ever came, my country would be underwater. So much for that tiny red dot.

See this for corned beef: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corned_beef


Wikipedia is terrific. :thumbsup:
