[QUOTE=https://en.rocketnews24.com/2018/01/11/girls-feet-flavor-fried-chicken-now-on-sale-in-tokyo-promises-smell-stickiness-of-real-thing/]At first glance, the menu at Japanese takeout chain Tenka Torimasu looks incredibly simple. They serve karaage (Japanese-style fried chicken), karaage bento boxed lunches with rice, cabbage, and potato salad, and that’s all. But there’s a hidden depth of variety at Tenka Torimasu, because of how many different flavors of fried chicken they offer. Just to make that clear, that’s not “girls’ soul” or any other representation of the concept of youthful femininity, but “girls’ sole,” as in “this fried chicken tastes like the bottom of a young woman’s foot.” The key ingredient in the girls’ feet flavor is natto, fermented soy beans, over which the karaage chunks are placed (odds are there are a few other hidden seasonings as well). Tenka Torimasu says that the inclusion of the pungently divisive east Japanese breakfast staple recreates both the smell and stickiness of a girl’s foot[/QUOTE] [thumb]https://sociorocketnewsen.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/fk-2.png[/thumb]
More imitation meat, where's the real, deep fried human feet? [sp]Actually, what the fuck is this?[/sp]
I usually don't say this but: The fuck, Japan?

I LOVE NATTO I used to hate it but it grew on me. Fuckin gross food tbh. Relevant: [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/bFy6QH.jpeg[/img] This electrolyte drink is big in Asian countries. It's marketed as sweat?

[QUOTE]It was largely derived from the notion of what it is intended to supply to the drinker: all of the nutrients and electrolytes lost when sweating.[/QUOTE] Also, Natto isn't that bad once you eat it with rice and add the sesame oil.
As much as I hate Natto in general, this will still never be as bad as Mountain Dew Cheetos. Saw those at 7-11 on my way home, instantly regretted trying one.

So first the internet exploded when it discovered Japan had used panty vending machines and it'll probably explode over this... Japan, what are you smoking?

[quote]the smell and stickiness of a girl’s foot[/quote] Now I'm not a doctor, but I do have feet and I'm pretty sure if your feet can be described as sticky, something is wrong.

There's whole websites for it, quite a few women make decent money selling their used clothing to perverts online.
[QUOTE=TacticalBacon;53045464] It's just used panty fetishism.

I think my question should be: "How is this catering to a particular fetish economically viable at such a large level?" Is this fetish so widespread/common enough to make vending machines an option? I don't want to paint the Japanese with a large brush so that's why I ask, so I understand the reason they are there and I think my curiosity stems not from the sexual aspect of this, but the economic way in which this fetish is being marketed to.
Will Quentin Tarantino try it? :v:

There's hot meal vending machines, general goods vending machines, fresh fruit vending machines, pornographic magazine vending machines, umbrella vending machines, etc, etc. Probably a result of a bunch of different factors coming together, Japan is still very cash-based and rarely uses cards for payment so a place people could go to to make purchases is better than online (or at least was back during the heyday of the used panty vending machines), real estate and labour are expensive so a vending machine is preferable to a brick and mortar store and in general Japan seems to be big on automation.

:sick: Seriously
I love feet but I don't think I could stomach this shit. Without there actually being feet what's the point?
Hahaha h-how crazy, who would ever want to taste girls feet right g-guys?

Natto, guh. The thing that only tastes good if you’re old, according to everyone I’ve spoken to. Hate that shit

With Nicotine in it. It's great.
