JAL supports Food Action Nippon

Food Action Nippon is a movement to improve Japan's food self sufficient rate. Japan Airlines has agreed to support this movement. Starting from August 1 2009, JAL will start serving a special bread made with 30% domestically produced rice flour in First and Business class cabins. According to the press release, the rice flour will give a distinctive flavor to the bread. This might even taste like a mochi LOL Too bad I missed this by a few days. I will have to wait until the next time I fly in business class with JAL to try this.
