Read this interesting report on Japan Probe that the zookeepers at the Fukuoka City Zoo are feeding their chimpanzees negi ネギ (welsh onion) to help them combat the flu bug during winter season.

Another zoo, Tama Zoo had been already doing this for four years and have significantly reduced the number of apes that caught colds during winter.

Here’s the youtue video of the news report:

Now I finally realised why Hatsune Miku love negi so much. LOL
