The return of the gyūdon
Early this year, the popular Japanese meal gyūdon (beef on rice) disappeared from menus across the country because Japan's main beef supplier was the U.S., and Japan decided to cut all U.S. beef import after some BSE cases were found, forcing gyūdon restaurants to switch to pork since they claimed that they couldn't afford keeping similar prices and taste with beef from other countries.
Starting today, the chain Sukiya (my personal favorite, for their kimchee gyūdon, mmm) is offering gyūdon again! They're now using Australian beef.
Next week I'll have to go check that out!
