| Home made (by my mother) apple cake |
To Japanese people, European sweets are too sweet. To most of the people I know from Europe, Japanese sweets are "too sweet" too. My theory is that in Sweden (Europe) sugar is used for sweets, while in Japan they use sweet beans a lot. The sweetness that you are not used to comes through as "too sweet", so both sides think the other side's sweets are much sweeter than their own.

ReplyDeleteJa, svenska ugnar är mycket bättre än japanska.
