This photo taken on May 15, 2026 shows Yoshihiro Noro, owner of the Kamakurayama Natto production facility, mixing natto at his store in Kamakura, Kanagawa prefecture. The highly nutritious beans inoculated with beneficial bacteria remain a traditional Japanese breakfast staple, but their pungent aroma, viscous texture and yeasty taste divide even their homeland. Recent years have seen natto join a series of fermented foods, from kimchi to kombucha, that have surged in popularity worldwide as Americans in particular seek better digestive health following the Covid-19 pandemic.
