Lesson 10: Plastic Food Samples Good Enough to Eat! / VIDEO Script

Al:
John, don’t you just love travelling? For me, the greatest adventure is going to a really foreign land and sampling their delicacies. Aren’t you of the same mind?

John:
Absolutely, Al. But don’t you find it a little tough when you’re presented with several pages of menu filled with descriptions in incomprehensible text? What do you do in these sorts of situation?

Al:
Well John, I like to live dangerously, so I usually order something I figure can’t be too bad. I’m usually served up with something completely different from what I’d expected. Sometimes the dish is just too exotic; a costly mistake.

John:
Yes Al. It’s no wonder foreign visitors to Japan show their appreciation for the plastic food samples showcased in front of eateries all over the country. Some of them look good enough to eat. Sure makes selection a piece of cake.

Al:
It’s a great idea John. No need to worry about whether the staff speaks their language; just go to the showcase and point. Another virtue about food samples is that they speak louder than conspicuous shop signs.

John:
I agree. Just by looking at the condition of the sample, one can figure out the atmosphere of the restaurant. If the samples are faded or covered in a layer of dust, look for somewhere else for dinner. I hear they have another use, these days.

Al:
Yes John. Plastic food samples are now a popular souvenir of Japan among foreign visitors.
