What you can do with the basic garments you wear most often, such as pants (jeans), shirt, underwear, shoes, belt and socks or glasses are many. Wearing additional clothing, such as a coat, gloves or hat, is an added bonus; for now, we will stick with the most common and basic daily clothing items.

Shirt

Use it to help filter water. Almost every type of woven fabric, from everyday cotton T-shirt material to polyester dress shirts, is woven to allow water to flow through the fabric. One exception may be a heavy, canvas-type material treated with a water-repellent coating. Tear off a swatch of fabric and unravel or shred it to make kindling for a fire.

Use long-sleeve shirts to protect you from sunburn or biting insects.

Tear it into strips for bandages.

Wear it to cover your head.

Tear off the long sleeves to use as a tourniquet.

Use it as a knapsack to carry items you find.

Wave light-colored shirts as a signal or distress flag.

Use it as a bowl to hold food, such as berries, you find.

Roll it up and use it as a pillow.

Cut it into thin strips and braid them together to make cordage.

Make it into a shelter.

Long Pants or Jeans

Take off long pants and tie each leg at the ankle and tie the waist opening. Seal cuffs with a belt, twine or cordage from tree bark and fill the legs with as much air as you can to make a personal flotation device. While that may not be a perfect flotation device, in a dire situation, it works for a short time with some closely woven fabrics, such as denim. Most pants, especially jeans, have metal rivets. You can use those rivets as a striker to start a fire. Cut out a heavy-duty zipper from jeans or pants to create a small, makeshift saw blade.

Shoes or Boots

Throw it like a weapon.

Put rubber-like soles on a fire to produce black smoke to signal for help.

Shoelaces

Tie both of them together for a fishing line.

Use them to set a snare trap.

Use to bundle sticks for fire.

Use to start a fire.

Turn them into a tourniquet or to hold in place a bandage made from your shirt.

Underwear

Remove the elastic from the waistband to make a slingshot.

Use the wire from an underwire bra as a dagger or hook.

Make a signal flag.

Belt

Use to bundle and carry firewood.

Use as a tourniquet.

Use as a whip.

Remove the buckle and sharpen the prong on a rock to make a sharp point.

Use to secure sticks to stabilize an injured leg or arm.

Socks

Protect your hands from heat or cold.

Carry food, such as berries.

Wrap around your head as a headband.

Make it into fire starter.

Unravel a long piece of thread and use it as a fishing line.

Make them into bandages.

Glasses

Start a fire using a lens as a magnifying glass.

Use mirrored sunglasses as a signaling device.

Assuming they are made of real glass, pop out a lens and sharpen the edge on a rock to make a knife.

Shape metal frames into a sharp point for a makeshift fishing spear.

Are Japanese food spicy?

However, while other Asian countries are famous for their spicy dishes and peppers, Japanese cooking tends to stay on the more mild side. Still, we know sometimes you want an extra kick and spice to accompany with your meal.

3) Rayu Chili Oil

Hailing from China, Rayu is a type of chili oil first popularized by Chinese cooking. Often topped on rice, ramen, pasta, or as a dipping sauce for gyoza pot-sticker dumplings, rayu chili oil has the right blend of spice and garlic. Perfectly adjusted to the tastes of the Japanese people, rayu is often featured in Japanese culinary dishes that have roots to China. Therefore, it isn't uncommon to see restaurants serving ramen or gyoza to have a bottle of rayu at each table. Although the spices from Japan aren't at the same level of flame as other Asian cultures, Japan is home to enough Michelin Stars for us to overlook the lack of spice. However, given shichimi is a collection of dry spices (and often sold in decorative packages), the small collection of spices are a great souvenir for friends back home. Don't forget, with spice becoming more prevalent and popular in Japan, you might want to hit a fast food restaurant during your holiday vacation with Japan Deluxe Tours for a spicy treat you might not expect!
