This review, at a popular site for people interested in Japan, could serve as a guide to watching the new documentary about Japanese hostess bars. It's a new genre for me, although I have some background in journalism: https://japanned.hcommons.org/journalism
Other professors used to take me to snacks when I was single, so I was well aware that hostesses were mostly divorced or single mothers. Mimi sheds light on the nature of snacks by saying that #Japan has a dark side. Regarding the #social#inequality that Greg mentions, Mimi clarifies that there is a double standard whereby men can go to snacks openly, but it is shameful for #women to work in them. Now I'm a family man, but I sympathize with such women, who would otherwise have to #work for close to the minimum wage.
A documentary succeeds insofar as it sheds light on the topic. If you watch it, perhaps let us know your impressions.
Salad is cool. Salad saves time. Salad saves you money. Salad is good for footprint. Ready prepped in the fridge is awesome for health, exec function, good choices & quick meals. Salad is good rebellion, in lots of ways.
Consider just how many nudges you get in shows, on social, endless ads, pushing towards unhealthy, high profit, low nutrition, high cost, highly processed, high environmental impact, food.
Sprinkle salt, chilli and/or spices and nutritional yeast flakes. (Spices are optional but i used approx half teaspoon of tumeric, blackpepper quarter teaspoon of togarishi)
Then lid on, proper bosh them around shake so the potatoes get all fluffy edged and coated. Move loose coat around and shake again.
You can do final crisping in the oven, like 200 degrees in a fan oven. Preferably on a flatish open tray so air can move around. About 25mins maybe. They're even better in an airfryer if you have one.
Do 15mins then check how they're going, give a shake around then another 10.
Cheesy, but no cheese. SUPER crunchy, but no oil. Savoury tasty super junky feel, but basically healthy food.
