Thing get really complicated. Most meals (dining out) in Japan are very balanced but they do not make much changes. What I mean is that restaurants do not usually accept any dietary requests.

It is a brand of Japanese Sake.
It iOS one of the sake brands that is easier to find here in the US than in Japan.
If you have tried this sake before, you should really tray it.

うな重 EEL TAERIYAKI OVER RICE
To get good Unajyu, you need to spend 3 ~ 5,000 Yen in Japan.
Una = Unagi (EEL)
Jyu = Jyubako (BOX)
It comes in BOX ... If it comes in a bowl, it will be called UnaDon instead of UnaJyu.

Google Translate
After Google Translate
日本は太平洋の島国で、都市や宮殿、山岳国立公園、数千の神社や寺院があります。新幹線は、九州の主要島(沖縄の亜熱帯浜辺)、本州(東京と広島の原爆記念碑)、北海道(スキーで有名)を結んでいます。首都東京は、高層ビル、ショッピング、ポップカルチャーで知られています。
Google Translate has evolved quite a bit. It is now making sense ... But for commercial use, you should still consult with Japanese native speakers. If you need a translation help. We can recommend translators.

In little over 100 years ago Tokyo.
This is amazing how much has changed.
But there are already a lot of people there.
You hear "いらっしゃいませ" at 3:10 into this video.
This sounds just like current days.
I don't know if it was from 100 years ago.

Japanese Sweets
In Japan, (red) beans are cooked with sugar to make sweet paste.
So, when I came to the US and tasted salty beans, it was difficult to adopt.
Many of Japanese sweets are rice (mochi / rice cake) and sweet red means.
Do you like any of them?

Fall for appetite?
Today, I want to talk about “食欲の秋 (shokuyoku-no-aki).” “食欲 (shoku-yoku)” means appetite, and “秋 (aki)” is fall. So the phrase literally means “Fall (is the season) for appetite.” In other words, fall is the best season to enjoy food!
Here is an example:
いっぱい食べすぎちゃった。でも食欲の秋だから…いいよね!
I ate too much, but fall is the best season to enjoy food… so it’s alright.
We have some other phrases using “〜の秋” besides 食欲の秋.
読書の秋 (dokusho-no-aki):fall is the best season for reading
スポーツの秋:fall is the best season for sports
Hope everyone enjoys the fall :)

What's not included amazes me.

(2) No Calorie (Like a diet Coke ... No Calorie)
(3) No Sugar (Are you diabetic ... This has no sugar)
It really taste like a beer.
Also, if I am not mistaken, minor can buy this.
