Futons are the uncomfortable lumpy thing that you pull out for a guest, but do they have to be? They weren’t always like this, so how did they get so bad?

Checkout San-Ô: https://labrasseriesan-o.ca They're working on Sake, but for now I recommend the miso doux blanc. It's a very versatile ingredient that I vacuumed up in a week on coconut noodles and to boost packets of miso soup.

If you're in Montreal, there are both types of futons for sale at this shop on St Denis: https://www.futondor.com Already had a couple of patrons tell me they bought one. Yes that's right, this video and many others available early on https://www.patreon.com/PaigeSaunders

I don't take money from BIG FUTON because I would prefer to take money from YOUR POCKET.
