Leslie brought this back from Japan. It's Beyond Tofu's version of uni-like tofu. I've never eaten uni so I can't compare, but it was super ono to me.
Thanks Les!

although I like uni from Japan, in Japan, I don't think I would have been able to try this.
you brave!

Interesting. I’ve never tried Uni before either, it doesn’t look appealing to me. But I know a lot of people who like it.

What a good friend!
Cool😎. Amazing what the Japanese can replicate. It's like a vegan uni.
interesting!
V, I think eating real uni is even braver!
Izsmom, my sisters tried fresh uni in Hokkaido awhile back and liked it.
Aunty, for real.
Chet, exactly!!
Kat, I know!
We did an omakase sushi place for dinner so you basically eat whatever the chef prepares for you. There were some very interesting things served but I was a good sport and ate everything. ( some things I washed down with pickled ginger and water 😅)
Susan, I think I would've done exactly the same thing.
Does it require refrigeration if unopened? Where can you find it in Japan?, I asked at a couple markets but they never had it.
Anon, Leslie said she found it at Maruetsu Supermarket, and it does need refrigeration even if unopened.
I’m so glad you liked it. We totally whacked ours. Randy loves the stuff! Oh and I forgot to tell you, I found some really good Ume. I wish I bought more 😕
Les, there's a condiment jar we got that we wish we bought more of too. It has garlic, ginger, and onion in it.
