New year'day is really big day in Japan.

Sounds really bad to body.

So in Japan, from long time ago we have been having custom of eating
"七草粥:Nanakusa gayu” (seven-herb rice porridge).

1. Water dropwort (芹 : せり seri)
2. Shepherd’s Purse (薺 : なずな nazuna)
3. Cudweed (御形 : ごぎょう gogyō)
4. Chickweed (繁縷 : はこべら hakobera)
5. Nipplewort (仏の座 : ほとけのざ hotokenoza)
6. Turnip (菘 : すずな suzuna)
7. Radish (蘿蔔 : すずしろ suzushiro)

It’s a special rice porridge with 7 herbs.
Each herbs have meaning and each have great nutrition to make body recover.
Normally in Japane when we feel sick we eat rice porridge because good to digest
and easy to absorb nutrition.

Some say he’s half man half fish, others say he’s more of a seventy/thirty split. Either way he’s a fishy bastard. Google
