日本では節分があります。
日本人ならみんな知っていますが、季節の変わり目にかかりやすい病気や災害を鬼に見立てて、それを追い払う儀式です。
「福は内、鬼は外」といって、豆をまいて鬼を追い出します。
昔は豆は年の数だけたべたような。
海苔巻きも食べてましたが、
さらに、鰯も食べるんですね、知りませんでした。
おまめ、海苔巻き以外にも食べるものがあったとは！
お店ではいっぱい売っていたので，買って次の日食べました。
In Japan, 3rd Feb. is Setsubun.
As all Japanese know, it is a ritual to drive away illnesses and disasters that tend to occur at the turn of the season, by throwing beans at them as if they were ogres.
The beans are thrown to drive out the demons, saying “Fuku wa uchi, oni wa soto” meaning Luck inside the home, bad luck out of the home.
In the old days, people used to eat as many beans as the number of the age.
We also ate sushi rolls,
In addition, sardines are also eaten, I didn’t know that.
I didn’t know that there were other things to eat besides beans and sushi rolls!
There were lots of sardines on sale at the shops, so we bought some and ate them the next day.
