Osaka Kansai Expo Exploring Part 1. The story of life woven by Koyama Kundo Museum “EARTHMART”

One interesting corner is the “EARTH FOODS” section. “This is a bit of an unusual exhibit, as it’s on the future floor, but there’s nothing new there. Japanese people may think it’s commonplace and outdated, but when people in the food industry overseas see it, they can get hints about food, like, “I didn’t know there was a clever way to use this technology, or how to cook this ingredient,” says Koyama. 1 ingredients, including kanpyo (dried gourd), konnyaku (jellyfish), surimi (surimi), and pufferfish, are displayed with packaging made by creators that conveys the appeal of the ingredients, and new recipes are also proposed.
