Dunno what your recent problem is but you will start to look pretty
silly fast if you try to claim folks in Japan eat beef every day. Cost
makes that a non-starter. For cost reasons, we ate mostly what cost

Justco (name of store there) and check the prices. In HK, I didnt have
a house and kitchen so wandered the place in fun.
