Thanks. Tag added.
It's been over a decade since I've read it. I completely forgot about that.
Yeah, it hasn't aged well.๐
I'm just going to recall my suggestion.
tbh I mostly just remember it having curry recipes at the end - and I was hungry when I came across this post.
I should have freshened up on it before recommending. Thank you for catching my oversight.
Lol, no worries. I really enjoyed it when I was younger. And then scan team released a few chapters earlier this year and my excitement dimmed pretty quick when I remembered how much of a perv the MC was towards the love interest that I think I was still under 18? I don't remember how horrible it was, might not be a deal breaker to everybody.๐
If you like cooking stuff, have you ever checked out Yakitate Japan? It's about making bread!๐ฅณ I think it's safe. It was a predecessor to Food Wars with its over the top reactions, but less sexually charged... I think.๐ ๐ค
I'm pretty open-minded about me personally consuming problematic content. I can choose how to engage with it - analyze, critique, reflect, ignore, or put the work down and move on with my life. I find the mainstream culture that I interact with daily to be fundamentally problematic (as well as the several other cultures I have lived among in my life), the awareness of which has given me a lot of practice navigating such issues.
However I do not like recommending works with problematic content. Especially to people I do not know well enough to understand they will engage with it. I agree it may not be a deal breaker for some, but that doesn't mean that I need or want to promote it.
I certainly do enjoy SFW content (and the lack of any guilt associated with them). I have not read Yakitate Japan but I used to have a group of friends that talked about it a lot. I might give it a spin. Thanks for the counter-recommendation!
Fair enough! Welcome!
