@mkmrtn @EGACHESpp @OhNoAva_tK Soy sauce is like drinking salt. Also I can see fingerprints in my wasabi and that’s disgusting.

Is it weird that I want to drink soy sauce? I mean “I won’t” because I think I would die, kinda like drinking salt water. But still.

I didn’t notice that but I’ve always had salt cravings. I would drink salt water or soy sauce.
