Yes, very, very delish! Actually, though I am a KyotoFoodie, I have actually never seen a live moriguchi daikon. They are pretty rare, I guess. I just asked Paku (I am in the dog house with her now) and she said that she has never laid eyes on a fresh moriguchi daikon either. So, you are not alone! Hello Stephanie

I used to live in Japan, and I absolutely fell in love with the foods there, especially the foods you could buy at stands along the road. I never saw that ridiculously long vegetable though, it's amazing! Ooh, that all looks so tasty!

'pure gastro-delight'. Very well put, indeed! Those pickles (made by other makers) can be had at any large department store in Japan. So, you won't have any trouble finding them. Hi Diva,

Paku made buddies with the clerk at the demise, maybe she will contact them for details? Hello Marc,

I miss the basements of Japanese department stores. You could make a meal of just going around collecting samples. As someone who's tried (unsuccessfully) digging up gobo which is only half the length of that daikon, I'm wondering how on earth they get that thing to come out of the ground without a backhoe or some other large piece of earth moving equipment.
