Natto is molded beans. (I could put it more delicately but that's what it is.) It gets worse. It's not the description of its make-up that makes this food disturbing. It is its smell. That is the reason most gaijin stay clear of natto. Imagine being locked in the trunk of a car for 24 hours with only a dozen rotten eggs and yesterday's socks to keep you company. I think you can get the picture...
