In the waiting room of the cat hospital, there was a cat that kept yelling 'Uu!' angrily, but when its owner was called by the receptionist and left, it fell silent, but when its owner returned, it resumed its angering 'Uu!' as if to say, 'I've been angry this whole time, haven't I?' It was very clear who it wanted to know how angry it was, and it was great.

If you compare Ajinomoto, which is a rich flavor, with kelp and make a video on how to make pickles,

'If you have money, kelp is the best choice because it's natural and the safety of natural products is guaranteed.'

I felt like compulsory education had failed when I saw comments like this.

Just because it's natural doesn't mean it's safe. Don't you know about puffer fish poison, monkshood, and poisonous mushrooms?
