Peanus Butter?

Yesterday I tried pig ear in… peanut butter! But when Japanese people say peanut butter, they say peanuts butter, and well, it doesn’t sound so innocent. Anyhow, it wasn’t like, a whole ear. More like stringy bits of cartilage-y looking stuff (picture really thin, long slices of bacon) with a small amount of creamy peanut butter mixed in. It came with a bento lunch everyone from Hyakuna was eating yesterday for their welcome party. Apparently it’s an traditional Okinawan food. Personally, I’d skip chewing, and chewing, and chewing on ear again. You can’t really break it down so you just get to the point where you have to swallow it. Yuck!
