Q:

As a citizen who loves imoni, it is very regrettable that pork and miso-based fake imoni is being served in the name of "imoni soup."
Since ancient times, orthodox imoni refers to soy sauce-based and beef soups, and miso and pork miso soup has been avoided as barbarian imoni. I think that the school cafeteria "Imonijiru", which could repeat the tragedy of the "Imoni War", the repeated invasion of the orthodox school by the Barbarians, is a very dangerous menu that could undermine peace.

A:

Thank you very much for your kind comments regarding the potato soup. There are various kinds of imonijiru for each area in the prefecture, and there is a great love and commitment to each imonijiru. I'm asking from the person in charge of the cafeteria. This time's imoni soup is a menu item inspired by Tohoku University, so I reproduced the imoni (miso-based, pork) that would be popular in Miyagi Prefecture, where the campus of Tohoku University is located. I'm sorry that it's not the soy sauce-based beef stew that you love. This time, with all due respect to Hellenes, would you like to try it?
In the future, if you are considering serving sweet potato soup again at the University of Tokyo Co-op, please let us consider a soy sauce base.
