FUTAGO SATOIMO (Taro) a specialty like delicious potato 34G006
Futago Town, Kitakami City, where "Futago Satoimo" is grown, is located on low flat land, and the fertile soil has been formed by the flooding of the Kitakami River since ancient times. The "Futago Satoimo", a specialty of this area, has been cultivated here using the same methods for 300 years, and while stubbornly protecting its variety, it has a unique presence. It is sticky and rich, and is a delicious potato that should not be underestimated as just a Satoimo (Taro... a root vegetable like a potato that is eaten in Asia and many countries in Africa) . It is characterized by its thick texture and smooth taste, and is a rare variety that has not been improved. Another characteristic of Futago Satoimo is that it is soft but does not fall apart when boiled. A seasonal autumn scene in this region is when groups gather on the banks of the Kitakami River under the autumn sky to make and eat 'Satoimmo soup' and share sake. It is registered as a Japanese geographical indication (GI)

OSHU City Cattle Museum only museum in Japan specializes in cattle 34C009
Opened in 1995 in Oshu City, famous for its Maesawa beef cattle, this is the only museum in Japan that specializes in cattle (and is rare worldwide). The museum's theme is "exploring the coexistence of cattle and humans, and learning about life, nature, and humans." The museum conducts research and exhibits on Maesawa beef and other cattle around the world, including stuffed animals, skeletons, fossils, and other items, as well as introducing the relationship between cattle and humans and beef dishes by part of the cow. Groups can experience butter-making and taste handmade cheese by applying in advance. Exhibitions also include cattle that lived in the Japanese archipelago during the Paleolithic period and whose fossils have been found in ruins in neighboring areas.
