I spent 3 years stationed in Okinawa with many trips to mainland Japan. I lived off base in Okinawa and my neighbor in the apartment next to me was a local. She was awesome and taught me a lot about cultural differences. One day I jokingly asked her why Squid was sold in street vending machines in vacuum sealed packets. It looked disgusting. She shut me up with her reply...
"Why do your people eat Catfish?"
I miss our intellectual conversations.
