@wallhackio Very good Pocket Monsters
(Can someone who knows Japanese translate for me?)
@vaporeon_ @wallhackio I can't (maybe I could give it a crack later) but: they're making omelette rice

@The_T @vaporeon_ @wallhackio i tried getting google to translate it and it was. not very helpful lol
re: no image description
@wallhackio @The_T @vaporeon_ omurice just means omelette rice
@vaporeon_ @aescling @wallhackio the rice goes inside the egg in a way that is completely arcane to me
then you put ketchup on it
@The_T @aescling @wallhackio Wait
Do tomatoes grow in Japan?
@vaporeon_ @aescling @wallhackio I think tomatoes will grow anywhere you plant them
@vaporeon_ @aescling @wallhackio Internet website says:
Originating in Mesoamerica about 7,000 years ago, tomatoes arrived in Japan early in the Edo period (1603-1868) having traveled the globe and being domesticated along the way. The first tomato plants in Japan were considered an ornamental — they were not cultivated for culinary purposes until the Meiji period (1868-1912).
@vaporeon_ @The_T @aescling it's typically topped with ketchup
@wallhackio @The_T @aescling Ketchup is made of tomatoes
@vaporeon_ @The_T @aescling I don't imagine it would be difficult to import ketchup
but also I am not aware of any reason that Japan wouldn't cultivate tomatoes themselves
@vaporeon_ @The_T @aescling maybe they don't though. i really wouldn't know
@wallhackio @vaporeon_ you missed a post https://glaceon.social/@The_T/115222409386630691
@The_T @vaporeon_ oh neat thanks

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio @The_T skillfully purrepared omelette, hard on the outside but still runny on the inside, served over a bed of fried rice; after laying it on the rice it's cut open to let the wetter eggs spill out. it looks really neat when purrepared correctly

@aescling @wallhackio @The_T What is omelette rice? Do you just fry rice with egg?
