Where is the best place to find gluten free product in Tokyo?

Sometimes I saw it in chain supermarket for like a month and then it was discontinued. Do you know any places that sell gluten free product regularly?

    In my experience, your best bet for consistent availability is gonna be either Amazon, or taking a DIY route: AMIKA chain grocers (I believe they're generally a restaurant supply sort of space, but they're nice for buying things in larger than normal quantities) have gluten free flour alternatives for baking (1 part tapioca starch / 1 part potato starch / 2 parts rice flour will do you well for general baking)

    I guess, buying on Amazon is my best option.

    This whole realm has come so far in the last 10 years, but if you just search for グルテンフリー 東京 there are lots of places that come up. So much easier to dine out, too :)

Has life in Japan improved your body image?

I think overall I've become more accepting of my body during my years in Japan, and I would say a big part of that is because of onsen culture. It has made me realize that bodies are just that...bodies...and they come in all different shapes and sizes. I'm wondering how you feel about your own body image based on your time here. Has it helped or hindered your perception?

What is your least favorite household chore in Japan?

Today is "Enjoy Laundry Day". I personally don't mind doing laundry that much, but there are things I don't enjoy so much. There are also chores I don't mind too much, such as hoovering and dusting, BUT I find them more taxing in Japan because they have to be done way more often in Japan than in my home country, because Japan has an inexplicable amount of dust! What household chores do you really dislike? And / or are there any household chores you don't mind doing too much in your home country, but find them more time consuming in Japan?

Do you go to Karaoke in Japan? Your home country?

I just wrote about Karaoke Culture Day and in September about Family Karaoke Day, so it begs the question: Do you go to Karaoke often in Japan? And while we're at it, some other questions; Do you like it? love it? Only go because somebody makes you!? And how about in your home country - have you ever been to Karaoke in your home country?

Which prefecture do you think is the most attractive?

I posted this morning about the recently released Prefectural Attractiveness Rankings. Obviously there's an element of subjectivity to this, because what one person deems attractive can be very different to someone else's opinion of it. Hokkaido was ranked the most attractive prefecture in Japan, but the full list can be found below (image source is the article here: https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/39c11474715641625a5720b86bc9b72dfe59e4cd). Of the prefectures you've visited, which would you say is the most attractive, and why would you rate it that way?
