Minke whale curry is on sale now in the bargain bins at Don Quixote for only 1,029 yen. Supplies are limited (only 2 cans left), so don’t miss out on your chance to dine on stewed cetacean! Get it before they go extinct (nah, they’re not endangered, but that doesn’t make it right)!
This is one of the few foods I refuse to eat, not because it is prohibitively expensive, but because it sucks to support the harvest of rare plants and animals. On top of that, it just doesn’t look like it would taste that good (certainly not worth the “discount” price of 1,029 yen).
Now check out this other whale meat product from Toretore Ichiba in Wakayama:

All that’s missing for a proper breakfast is a side of scrambled loggerhead turtle eggs. I wonder if you are supposed to fry this stuff up like bacon, eat it raw, roast it, or stew it. In any case it sounds disgusting, not unlike tongue loaf.
