So the izakaya in my neighborhood I go to pretty frequently started putting whole sesame seeds in their... Uhh in Japan this dish is just called スープ every time I've seen it. In English in the us it's usually "egg drop soup" lol. Anyway, a few months ago they started putting whole sesame seeds in their スープ. I'm allergic to sesame seeds. But it's been fun learning how to use the スプーン to scoop out スープ with the minimal amount of sesame seeds. I've gotten pretty good at it. My throat hurts.
It just occurred to me that the expression "when life gives you lemons make lemonade" supposes that lemons are bad. Like you're making the best of a bad situation. Who doesn't like lemons? Also I like how it goes like... "Life gave you something sour instead of something sweet? Well, water it down and cover it up with something else sweet that presumably life also gave you."
