Tashiro Bamboo Festival
Mountains of fresh takenoko
Tashiro is famous for delicious bamboo shoots that come out in the spring called takenoko. Every year the area holds a festival in celebration of the takenoko harvest with food, games, and performances.
Games include a takenoko peeling contest (who can peel the fastest) and the most popular takenoko eating contest. Teams of two squeeze into one t-shirt and compete to be the fastet takenoko soup eaters. There are many other events open to all visitors.
Raw takenoko, boiled takenoko, and takenoko soup with local pork are sold during the festival.
