Territorial Mundane Foods

They're not anyone's “favorite” foods, but they all have their own place in our hearts. Boiled *chikuwabu* cakes, sweet *amashoku* buns, *kanpyou* (dried gourd!), deep-fried *chikuwa* fish cakes wrapped in seaweed, sweet *suama* mochi cakes, soft *gyuuhi* mochi, frozen mikan, soba water… This manga is an ode to those foods that are a bit unremarkable, yet still so dear to us. The author's cute sidekick Mogu-san is a cute treat as well! Eiko Matsumoto, the creator of *Nazo no Ano Mise*, brings you this super tasty essay comic that cooks up both laughs and feels.
