You may be familiar with kinpira gobo, a popular Japanese side dish made of julienned gobo (burdock) and carrots that have been simmered in sugar and soy sauce and topped with toasted sesame seeds. Kinpira is a cooking style where ingredients are first stir fried then simmered in a sweet soy sauce. This unique Gomoku Kinpira includes five domestic ingredients from Japan (gomoku means five items) that have been carefully combined in a balanced manner.
The origin of Viva Co. and its natural food company Marumo, dates back to 1970 when the founder started his own tofu manufacturing business. He fell ill, likely due to fatigue and a reliance on medications. Unable to feel better, he turned to a natural diet and bit by bit his health improved. He established Viva Co. in 1973 as a way to help others who are concerned about their health and want to prevent illness. The company gets its inspiration from macrobiotics (which focuses on principles of eating whole foods that balance yin and yang elements) as well as by learning from the many unspoiled oceans and lands abroad. Through honest, hard and enjoyable work, Viva Co. strives to contribute to society with the themes of health, environment and happiness, and a focus on food safety.
