Japanese Trail Mix, Friends Back Home

This, folks, is the equivalent of Japanese trail mix.  You see peanuts and OMG yes that's fish in there with their beady little eyes.  I'll even eat the natto now in the school lunches but this stuff I'm really just not interested in eating, especially when it's so easy to not eat it and just hide it, meaning to throw it out later.  Beyond this, there isn't really anything that appears in the school lunches that I don't/can't eat.  I eat the natto when it appears to try and get a taste for it, which I don't think will ever happen, but maybe I'll at least be able to stomach it eventually.  It's part of my fight to get Japanese people to see that foreigners can and sometimes do appreciate Japanese things... just not their trail mix.

I get this in real life when I go back to the states.  Thanks Chiem Ay... er... Jin Ay.  I love my friends back home.  Even if I don't have many left, and even if they're scattered so I don't really have a "group" anymore, I still love them all.  I'm happy that they think of me and are willing to do things like this.  This is from one of my favorite Final Fantasy games, 3 in the states and 6 in Japan.  I used to know that game inside and out.  I miss my own school days.  High school and elementary school anyway, not so much middle school.
