Tea, yes, avocados, yes, miso, I can certainly see the reasoning, and what's anko? But sardines, really? Not anchovies?

Well, they're technically niboshi, and by the way you shouldn't click on that link if you don't like eating things that still have eyes. I call them dried sardines, but Wikipedia says you can also call them anchovies? (I don't think I've ever had American sardines or anchovies, so I don't know what they taste like.) Whatever they are, they're very salty and crunchy and fishy, and I have been ordered not to eat them around certain people who don't appreciate their odor. These people are fools.

(Anko is red/Azuki bean paste; candies made with it are good with tea. And darn it, I don't have any left...)
