【食べものヒストリー】土用の丑の日！ウナギ

By the way, do you know what day today is? Today is Doyo no Ushi no Hi (the Day of the Ox during the summer). Eating eel is a traditional Japanese custom on this day (though I can't afford it due to the high prices...). And speaking of eels, they are deeply intertwined with Japanese history. So, this time, for the first time in a long time, we'll be discussing the history of eels in our food history segment.
