Buy a handful and bring them as omiyage and enjoy your stay in Japan.
Aside from being in total agreement with all of this there is one other point about this idea that rather infuriates me.


Wasabijiuce & Stefan G
How crass and money grubbing can you get?!?!
You are going as a visitor, but with the idea of profiting off of a health issue?
You need to stay home and not inflict your menace on others.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
