The story of Pinch-Shot Edamame
Suddenly every sushi counter served a little bowl of fuzzy green pods. You held one to your lips, pinched, and the beans popped out like tiny green rockets. Kids who said they hated vegetables ate forty in a row because of the salt. The empty pods piled up in a little green mountain on the side of the plate.
Pinching a pod too hard launched the bean across the table, and families kept score by distance.
