No Rice No Life! Japanese Grandma Has the Answer to All of Life’s Problems!

No Rice No Life! Japanese Grandma Has the Answer to All of Life’s Problems!

There are many valuable lessons older people have to offer the young. This Japanese grandma is worried that the young people of today don’t eat enough rice and has come up with an innovative dance routine and catchy song to educate them about the various benefits a rice heavy diet can have. The No Rice no Life campaign is sponsored by Zen-noh, Japan’s agricultural organization, and is designed to promote rice as an essential part of modern life.

According to the song, rice is a healthy carbohydrate which is unlikely to cause weight gain, keeps you feeling pleasantly full, and is packed with all the energy you’ll need to be able to dance like this even if you’re no longer as young as you were.

In addition to the cool dance moves, you might want to keep an eye on the background at 1:27 for the appearance of the campaign’s dancing rice grain mascot character. Zen-noh will be hosting a dance contest where you could win some fantastic (presumably rice themed) prizes so you’d better get learning the routine if you want a chance to challenge this dancing granny!

More information on the campaign and the health benefits of rice can be found on the official website (Japanese only), or you can follow the campaign via their Facebook page, Twitter, or Instagram.
