Hi Aliss very good info - thanks
Natto has an additional benefit- it is very good for high blood pressure
Here in London it can be bought in the Japan centre in piccadilly and a number
of Korean food stores it is chilled and not frozen here so has no additives -
it is not difficult to make
see http://www.bento.com/tr-natt.html
hope that is useful
best terry
