One of the biggest issues facing sustainable agriculture is that it’s “way, way, way more labor-intensive than industrial agriculture,” Jones said. “It’s not sustainable physically, and it’s not sustainable for people personally: they’re working all the time and don’t have an opportunity to have a social life.

You see, Mr. Ajikko was my Julia Child. In the summer between 7th and 8th grade, I got up every weekday at 7:45 am
to follow the animated adventures of a culinary prodigy who runs a katsudon joint with his mom. When an aging master chef chances upon the restaurant and is–quite literally, as you will see in the clip–blown away by a pork cutlet curry, he becomes the boy’s mentor. Thereafter, the young Yoichi juggles family restaurant duties with his travels around Japan, challenging the reigning chef in every category to a culinary duel.

You can find this mold in the MoMA store, but it’s made in Japan."
