The majority of the special Natto that only the uniqueness of the pallate of J-people can allow them to fully appreciate and that all FGs must be asked whether or not they like, or eat it, is in fact, imported. The major suppliers are Australia and the US (Canadian imports are not allowed because of outbreaks of mad soy bean disease in Quebec).
