This winter break, I am going all the way
back home for the holidays. I am sad that I will not be able to get a special
KFC holiday meal. In the United States we usually eat ham, turkey, or a roast for
Christmas dinner, so the KFC holiday meal is unique to Japan.
I have been shopping for Christmas gifts
and it is very difficult. California has a lot of Japanese influence just like
Tokyo has a lot of American influence. Finding presents can be hard because my
friends and family have already tasted things like manjuu, mochi, and senbei.
One thing that we don’t have much in the United States is yuzu. It is getting
popular in big cities, but it is still very difficult to find. I love yuzu, so
I want to bring yuzu flavored things back to my family.
