This photo taken on May 15, 2026 shows Yoshihiro Noro, owner of the Kamakurayama Natto production facility, posing for a photo 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.
