FYI: Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans. People say it has strong smell and bitter taste, but give it a try! It tastes pretty good, super healthy and nutritious! It helps prevent clot formation and reduce blood pressure. It may benefit weight loss and offer protection against cancer. Better to love it 👍 Yes it is totally not a food to take it out with you. Something you want to enjoy at home! BTW, once there was Natto with no smell but I don't see it anymore. Maybe people thought they don't want to spend extra budget on it.
