Mnemonic

On the bottom of bamboo roots there is a stamp that tells the season in which it was cut. We've been putting these season stamps on bamboo, and later pretty much every perishable food, for a long, long time.

Hints

Picture yourself in a grocery store. You see a big pile of bamboo and pick each one up, checking the season stamps on their roots, to make sure you don't buy an old one.

None

Mnemonic

These season stamps are marked on bamboo sets (せつ). You can't buy a single banana or a single grape, and just like that, if you want some nice seasonal bamboo, you have to buy them in sets.

Hints

How many bamboo sets will you be buying this season? I'm getting 42 sets.
