 Report

There is an old tale of famous "Momotaro" in Japan. The sweets which appear into that talk are this "Kibi-Dango"(:millet dumpling). Under those circumstances, humanity wants to eat at once. If it says so, the same thing as this is in a cheap candy. It is "Kibi-Dango" like brown and flat rice cake.

Millet is one of the five cereals, and is a yellow fruit with the plant of the department of a rice. On the other hand, "Kibi" of "Kibi-Dango" says around present Okayama. "Kibi-Dango" has both of the meanings. The powder of millet was also contained in "Kibi-Dango" of Okayama which I ate.



Sweet powder is applied to rice cake which was transparent. They are the sweets of the size like a ten-yen coin. The friend of "Momotaro" got this and goes to extermination of fiends. But even if it gets this now, nobody goes for extermination of fiends? It is such delicious touch which is not so, either.
