		tomcam 10 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Price of rice in Japan falls below ¥4k per 5kg Is this the comment you are referring to? I can’t find any such implications. Maybe it was edited? `I can buy rice at Costco in the US for $25 for 50lbs, which is equivalent to 854 yen for 5KG. A bit less than 1/4 the cost of Japanese grown rice.`

I also wasn’t following. I primarily eat US rice. The marginally better rice from Japan I might buy if I’m going to make sushi at home, but that’s just because I’d be investing so much time and energy already, might as well spend a few bucks more on a slightly better rice.
