There are just a few days left for this yr, and what we need to watch out about within the New Year is accidents brought on by choking on mochi.
According to a nationwide survey, over 660 aged folks died from choking on rice muffins within the two years as much as 2019, with almost 20% of the deaths occurring on the primary three days of the New Year alone.
