"There will be no soup for you," says the kitty
5/5

I discovered how to do it. Making miso soup from scratch is now a favorite of mine. These are my go-to ingredients for making dashi broth with miso paste. When my Japanese American relatives inquired about how I made such a delicious miso soup, I simply substituted bonito flakes for powdered dashi mix. When crushed, the flakes have a wonderful flavor. Wasabi, Shoyu, and sesame seed oil were sprinkled over tofu. green onions, roughly chopped.

Kitten adores these and believes that a happy kitty leads to a happy life
5/5

I use them as a food topper, and she eats all of her wet food this way. If it hadn't been for a Japanese cat blogger I follow (stray cat j-), I probably wouldn't have thought of them. san! ) but they're a godsend, especially if you're trying to feed a sick cat who's lost her appetite; I believe they work well to attract cats to food. This listing is particularly low-cost—some businesses have repackaged bonito flakes as "for cats" and charge exorbitant prices. What an elaborate ruse! Bonito flakes, such as these, are perfectly healthy and safe for your cat to eat.

The smokiness is incredible
5/5

Smoky flavor is absolutely delicious. I couldn't help but stick my nose into the bag to get a whiff of the delectable aroma.

This is a must-have in any Japanese kitchen! Hanakatsuo is a must-have in every Japanese kitchen! I've used this Yamahide brand hanakatsuo to make dashi stock as well as toppings for okonomiyaki, hiyayakko, agedashi tofu, and other dishes, and the flavor and umami are fantastic in both cases! It was delivered promptly, in good condition, and at a reasonable price

Both dogs and humans will enjoy it
5/5

This is one of the more affordable bonito flakes options, but that doesn't mean it's any less good. It's delicious for making dashi, and despite the fact that my cats won't eat them once I've dried the used ones, my dog will. They're our go-to training snack!.

Love it
5/5

The world's healthiest cat treat! Paying four times the price for the same product in a bag labeled for cats is not a good idea! Purchase this item to bring joy to both you and your cats.

Value - How many of you have cats, and how much do they cost? Have you ever paid $20 for a few ounces of dried catmandu fish in a bag? This is the same stuff as before!
