Natto is a traditional Japanese food composed of fermented soybeans. Some eat it as a breakfast food. It is served with soy sauce, karashi mustard and Japanese bunching onion. Natto may be an acquired taste because of its powerful smell, strong flavor, and slimy texture.

It is said among the elderly in Japan that eating natto everyday contributes to much healthier lifestyle and promotes longer life.
