This is one of the Japanese unique food.
It is made from soybeans. I like eating it with race.

自然な表現

This is one of the unique Japanese foods.
It is made from soybeans. I like eating it with rice.

1. This is the correct word order since adjectives of nationality ('Japanese') usually come after general adjectives ('unique').
2. Noun should be plural after 'one of'.
3. Correct spelling.
Thank you for writing about this food. Please tell me a little more about it. Why do you call it unique?

Because it is sticky and smells rotten.

自然な表現

It is unique because it is sticky and smells rotten.

1. This was added to make your sentence complete. Another expression: It is unique because of its sticky texture and rotten smell.
Hmm, I see. I wonder if many people like it. Why does it smell rotten? How is it to taste? Also, is it a good source of protein?

It smells rotten because soybeans are fermented by natto bacteria.
Most Japanese people mix specialized sauce in before eating. Therefore, it is easy for us to eat it.
Also, it is high protein, low calorie, and gut friendly.

自然な表現

It smells rotten because soybeans are fermented by natto bacteria.
Most Japanese people mix a specialized sauce in before eating. Therefore, it is easy for us to eat  .
Also, it is high in protein, low in calories, and gut-friendly.

1. Indefinite article 'a' is needed before the noun 'specialized sauce'.
2. 'it' is redundant since the subject of eating has already been established in the context of the paragraph.
3. Preposition 'in' is needed here, a food item is high in protein.
4. Preposition 'in' is needed, food is high or low in calories.
5. You should use plural form to refer to the general caloric content.
6. A hyphen was added to form a compound adjective 'gut-friendly'.
Can it be eaten as it is without adding sauces or seasonings? Do you think smell and taste are more important in food than its nutritional value?

It is not good taste for me to eat it without sauces.
I think smell and taste are more important because I don't have to force myself to eat nutritional foods. I get nutrients from foods I can eat.

自然な表現

It does not taste good to me without sauces.
I think smell and taste are more important because I don't want to force myself to eat nutritious foods. I get my nutrients from foods I enjoy eating.

1. This is a more natural and grammatically correct phrasing.
2. It is better to use 'want' in this context to express your personal preference, 'have to' implies obligation.
3. You should use adjective 'nutritious' to describe food that is rich in nutrients.
4. Possessive pronoun 'my' was added to make it more clear whose nutrients you're referring to.
5. It is better to use this expression to emphasize enjoyment rather than mere ability to consume food.
I agree that taste and smell are more important than a food's nutritional value. Are the soybeans wrapped around straw or what?

In general, it is sold in styrofoam containers.
I have never seen it wrapped around straw.

自然な表現

In general, it is sold in styrofoam containers.
I have never seen it wrapped in straw.

1. You should use preposition 'in' since the food would be enclosed within the straw, not wrapped around it.
