Anime and food? Almost everyone knows and at least watched anime before so it's not really a surprise when anime is the first thing that comes to my mind if I think of Japan. Plus, the food there, from what I heard, is amazing.
There was a time when anime was the first thing to come to my mind. Nowadays, Bitcoin is the first thing to come in mind, since Japan is now the country with more stores accepting Bitcoin in the world.
But yeah, I have to admit that food is the second thing to come in mind.
