I'm pretty open-minded about me personally consuming problematic content. I can choose how to engage with it - analyze, critique, reflect, ignore, or put the work down and move on with my life. I find the mainstream culture that I interact with daily to be fundamentally problematic (as well as the several other cultures I have lived among in my life), the awareness of which has given me a lot of practice navigating such issues.

However I do not like recommending works with problematic content. Especially to people I do not know well enough to understand they will engage with it. I agree it may not be a deal breaker for some, but that doesn't mean that I need or want to promote it.

I certainly do enjoy SFW content (and the lack of any guilt associated with them). I have not read Yakitate Japan but I used to have a group of friends that talked about it a lot. I might give it a spin. Thanks for the counter-recommendation!
