Meat is no stranger to Japan. What with BBQ's, Yakiniku, Shabu-shabu, Yakitori, the list goes on...
Sure you can get meat, but The Meat Guy brings you the items and those special cuts that you miss from back home. Every couple of months or so we send out a newsletter with tips on meat and highlights of a few products. We try to include an interesting story or two along with it.
If you would like to sign up please send an e-mail to news(at)themeatguy.jp with the word "subscribe" somewhere in the subject or body. To unsubscribe you can do the same. We will never give out your e-mail address.
Sorry the newsletter is only in English for now. |

December 2003
It's been much too long since the last newsletter and it's taken me some Christmas spirit(s) to get this one out.
Now that we are deep in the holiday season, I've just dug in a little deeper. Read on if you dare, in honor of bad poets throughout history, this month's news takes a lyrical form. The working title, "Buy Meat and Give it to Someone this Christmas!".
Season's greetings and cheers
I beg lend me your ear.
For its time once again,
To make you all grin,
Or perhaps fill your eyes full of tears.
Gift giving is nigh,
So let the meat guy
Help find something nice
And at the right price,
For those whose esteem you hold high.
Your account will not break.
That joy won't be fake.
When they open that box,
Thank God its not socks!
But a great lot of nice juicy steak.
Your loved one wants shorts
Like a bad case of warts.
And soap on rope?
He'll think you're a dope.
Why not give meat to all your cohorts?
Lingerie for the Missus
Might sound ambitious.
But she'll know you're a jerk
When you mention the clerk,
That modeled it and looked so salacious.
Just be safe, man
And stick to my plan.
Forget that clerk's chest
Grab only duck breast
Wifey's happy - just cook 'em up in a pan.
There's the has it all guy
So what does one buy?
We've all got those friends
Of the type who drive Benz.
Might I suggest some nice lamb he can fry.
That colleague, that dork.
The guy whom the stork
Dropped at the wrong door
And now he's a bore.
He'll improve, just send him some pork!
In closing I'll say
To make Christmas day
A time to remember
Without being somber
Have some Prosciutto and a nice Beaujolais.
Season's Greetings to All !!!
