Starting next month, hungry otaku will be able to dine on Tsumugi-branded takuan (沢庵), or a pickled daikon radish food usually served in flat, wide slices that bore enough resemblance to Mugi’s luscious eyebrows to be referenced in an episode of K-ON!
What is takuan, you might ask?
It usually looks something like this:
A type of tsukemono (Japanese pickled dishes), the Tsumugi variety will be made by the well-known producer of prepackaged pickled goods, Tokai Tsukemono Corp. and should be available for sale sometime in February, as the poster above promises.
Neither an exact sale date nor even an approximate price has been revealed as of yet, but certainly any devoted otaku can look forward to another moe-styled addition to their kitchen menus.
Incidentally, the poster includes the dream scene of Yui’s that made the takuan reference from the show, in the middle-left next to the pink text that reads:
“~Mugi-chan’s Eyebrows~ This is really Takuan♪”
Combine this with a similarly themed product, such as Rei Ayanami Ramen, Clannad Curry, or Aoi Nishimata Moe-Rice and it would truly make for a decadent otaku meal!

I would soo eat Tsumugi
She's yummy 8)
so is your avatar unell, but wont hit it =)
Why do I have a feeling takuan is about to get a price hike?
Not that you've tasted her.
mmm... Oven-Tsumugi with apples.
Wait what? XD
Mugi-chan brand snacks...
Ermmm... Yum Yumm...
Loli snack for a Pedobear to love would be the best selling snack for the Japanese sell.
takuan actually helps you disgust better. In other words Tsumugi is actually helping you to live healthier you ignorant fuck.
You mean digestion, not disgust. I can`t imagine that word in context with Tsumugi.
LOL epic anon fail
I'm disgusting you better, anon
digest is the right verb
Takuan!!
Is the pickled radish not tasty enough on its own that the seller felt the need to get Mugi-chan to sucker the fans to buy it?
It's probably horrible tasting and the seller will then explain it as "It's Mugi-chan flavored!"
Pickled radish has been around for a long time...
Anyways, all firms want to increase demand. Even if pickled radishes was hot shit, the producer won't pass off an opportunity to increase demand and revenue.
mugiii!!!!!!! do want!!!!!
I want Francesca Luccini loli breast hawaii toast!
With cherries in the middle. A double pack, of course. ^_^
FUND IT!
I can almost taste the sweet and sour takuan.. :3
Eat it as a garnish for Nagisa curry and Nishimata rice...
and how long will they say its been on her eyebrows?
Tsumugi wins again.
Takuan is good....
But Mugi branded takuan is K-On!-licious !
No dude, just no.
I've eaten one in a Japanese restaurant before and I gotta say they're awesome :3 Add a million more points for the Mugi factor.
Seriously DO WANT~ <3
Tsugumi: World's sexiest eyebrows.
I actually wanna try these eyebrows of hers. This doesn't feel so much as moe marketing as it is a necessary dining experience.
will be delicious

You forgot to mention my Nagi Butter!!!
^True~!
Forgive my exclusion of Nagi's Butter, but it was already long enough. ^^
Meals are getting moefied in Japan eh. I wonder when "Itadakimasu" will be changed to "Moe moe ~kyun".
日本オワタ
O_o That doesn't look like proper Japanese. I can't make heads nor tails of that.
害人だからしょーがね

That is proper 2ch lingo
Ha Ha too cool I want some. Hopefully with all due time we'll have the whole K-ON! group in the kitchen.
Omg, I've eaten one of those at a Japanese friend of mine, and it tastes awesome.
Gotta see the Tsumugi eyebrow shaped ones...I bet they taste even better.
