Meshimaru-kun, the character for rice produced in Fukuoka Prefecture, is a symbol of trust and sincerity. Through promoting “go to bed early, get up early, eat breakfast,” he helps people reconsider their eating habits. His favorite thing is, of course, rice! His favorite word is “seconds☆” The pickled plum placed on his head is his distinctive feature♪
