As a southeast asian growing up with tempeh and ever tried natto, I think I find it taste like tempeh but extremely extremely intense and less solid (which makes snese as tempeh is literally just a block of fermented soy beans) I think for those who has ever eaten tempeh and enjoy it, maybe you’ll just have to get used to how intense these guys are XDD

To those saying ew to the texture. Its actually quite good. If ya don’t like the texture i just freeze it and eat it. Though i’m not supposed to do that the beans still taste good frozen exceot the thing that suffers is my teeth lol. I personally grew up on natto from a young age. Though I’m not japanese so not as young as normal japanese children, I still recommend people trying it before saying yes or no to whether you like it because some foods surprise you like that

To me, they look like that one time I left my cheese loving little sister alone with a bag of cheese and her bowl of freshly made beans (we're Mexican, so beans that have been freshly made are awesome.) So, I kinda wanna try it.
Natto is just okay to me. If you’ve ever had chinese style instant zhajiang noodles, it tastes a lot like the sauce that comes with it. Rather than stinky cheese, it smells more like earwax to me lol. I like to eat it with green onions, the sauce packets, and a bit of kimchi on top of right. Tastes much better that way than eating it straight from the cup 👍

毎日食べても飽きない。最高の食べ物だと思ってる。
Natto is really good imo when it's been rinsed with warm water, I know it's not exactly traditional but anyway to reduce the stickiness improves it vastly for me
Well im actually a tribal girl fromm the North East of India,n yes we eat this fermented soybean too,it's kinda our main dish. Put some oil,mashed kind chillies + onions + garlic + ginger + tomato ,, then the soybean,after 5 mins,add some water. Then we add smoked pork 🤤🤤 n after the pork is cooked well n juicy,we garnish it with some spring onions. We eat this with rice + boiled beans (kidney beans to be exact) + any salad or cucumber or lemon 🤤. It's my fav dish 🤤

In my culture, there's something similar to Nato and it's made with small beans, idk what they're called but nato beans are big in this vid. I can confirm it's an acquired taste and we don't eat it just out of the box everytime (we sure can). Its just that the beans i grew up with have stronger flavour so we use it in cousins
When you have the acquired taste for it, it’s more of a slight coffee smell and taste.
Thank you for not doing those annoying loops that every other short does lol
Honestly when I’ve eaten it i haven’t noticed a ‘mucus texture’ it’s like eating firm edamame that has a small amount of a creamy sauce on it. It appears much more slimy than it actually is. I swear the strings just kind of dissolve in your mouth but the bean is really firm and creamy. It’s hard to explain since it’s a combination of textures but it isn’t unpleasant. The smell to me reminds me of coffee beans. It’s not as intense as fresh coffee but that is exactly what it smells like to me. A light whiff of coffee. The flavor is kind of the same, a bit bigger like coffee but the more I ate it the less bitter it tasted. For me It’s best paired with something else with the natto being used as a condiment to add a depth of flavor. It’s kinda nutty coffee like without much intensity.
I grew up eating these! I love them! 😋😋😋😋
I always wanted to try it but I only found those at a supermarket selling for 3 box. I only want to buy 1 cuz I'm scared I won't like it and waste the other 2
To me it smells like dollar store Cadbury chocolate Easter eggs lol
I'd be down to try it.

It is DEFINITELY acquired! I tasted it for the first time and didn’t like it that much but I made myself eat it more and eventually liked it!
For me, when I first tasted natto, it didn't really smell like anything. And the taste, it takes the flavour of the sauces that you mix in. It looks slimy but it doesn't feel wierd when you eat it too.
Natto is one of those things you'll hate when you first try it, but if you can get past the smell, you can get hooked to it pretty quickly. In my experience it tastes much better when it's cold. Different brands have their own unique taste of Natto, different fermenting processes and different ratio of sauces, so if you hate one particular brand, you might love another.
To my Mexican eyes it looks like beans and cheese so I want to try it
I have made natto using a starter. Honestly, newly made natto taste really nutty and no bitterness. Unlike the ones I have bought. Tbh it's an acquired taste, but it's something you miss after a while. It's so good.
Tried it for the first time not too long ago. To me it just smells like coffee, and tastes like beans with a slightly stronger flavor. Wasn't a huge fan the first time, but tried it again (bought a pack of 3, couldn't let it go to waste), and began liking it more and more.

Since soya have antinutrients even if it is cooked well, it has to be fermented. Thus the fermented soya is digestible.

Fermented beans with fermented fish and king chilli paste is a common side dish in my place. Manipur,India

It's a breakfast staple in Japan.
I like to taste it..we have fermented beans called Bekang..i guess it taste good
once I used to hate it but once you eat a few times it is the best food to eat along side with rice
🤤looks delicious.
Bro the first time i came over this video i looked at my friend and we both said “gobble gobble gobble” damn that was a good time.
I’ve seen people eat it in a rice roll. That might help with the taste and texture, it’s meant to be very nutritious so worth eating I guess!
We have a less mucus, fermented soybean that stanks but tastes so good
As someone who already doesn’t like beans I give you props my man enjoy your slima beans
"once you get past the mucus-like texture" oh hell nah i want to give up

Nato taste really good it taste a bit like coffee but sweeter a bit
My husband absolutely loves nato, I can't handle it at all, despite being extremely open to trying new foods
I love nattou. Been eating it as long as I can remember. Sometimes I just eat the beans 😂 Since I was young when I first started eating it, to me, it didn’t taste or smell bad since I had nothing to compare it to. As an adult, I would compare the smell to a slightly off latte lmao. Kinda stinky in the way dairy is, but it somehow has an undertone of being roasted to its profile (even though I’m pretty sure they aren’t?) Edit: I suppose nutty would be a better description.
I heard that it goes well on a bed of rice. Balances out the texture and flavour.
