Assignment #8: Japan Today

I chose the article about winter warmers to keep the chill away. In this article, many items, foods and drinks were introduced. There was also a picture of the "kairo". As for drinks, “tamagozake” was introduced as  Japanese method which people use when they have a cold, however, I didn't even know it. I'm ashamed that I didn't know it and it is sad thing that Japanese traditional cultures are declining. So, although this article was about items to keep warm, after reading this I felt that I want to know more about Japane traditional cultures.
