When is honey sweet?

Honey is sweet and delicious, isn’t it? You can pour it on pancakes, add it to tea instead of sugar—there are countless dishes and products that use honey.
So let’s try a honey-themed trick quiz! When is honey sweet? “In the season when bees fly a lot?” “Does it have something to do with the number eight?” Many people might think that, but the answer is actually very simple! Just think: when do you feel it’s “sweet”? If you approach it that way, the correct answer should come to you easily!

When trying to answer this question, wouldn’t most people say, “You’re supposed to answer Wednesday, but the trick is that the answer is Thursday!”? That’s what common sense suggests, right? In fact, if a small child answered that way, I’d be tempted to mark it correct—they’re being clever.
However, the answer is actually neither Wednesday nor Thursday.
The key to finding the answer is to focus on the word “asatte” in the problem statement.
Look closely: while “today” and “tomorrow” are written in kanji, “asatte” is written in hiragana… What does that imply?
What is something that doesn’t decrease no matter what you eat?
What is something that doesn’t get smaller no matter what you eat? Right now, all sorts of foods are probably popping into your mind: rice balls, sandwiches, apples, tangerines, sweets… There are so many edible things, but once you eat them, they’re gone, right? In other words, if you focus on the food when thinking about this question, you won’t get the right answer.
It’s a trick question, so you need to look at it from a slightly different angle.
The correct answer is “your mouth.” It certainly eats anything, but it’s the food that diminishes—the mouth doesn’t get smaller!
An elderly person carrying large luggage got on the train. But no one offered their seat. Why do you think that is?
See the answer
Because there were many seats available.
The reason the people around didn’t offer their seats when an elderly person carrying large luggage got on the train was that there were plenty of empty seats to begin with. In other words, the elderly person could sit wherever they liked, so there was no need for anyone to go out of their way to give up a seat.
Taro and Jiro are brothers born on the same day in the same year, but they are not twins. Why is that?
See the answer
Actually, I'm a triplet.
Taro and Jiro were born on the same day in the same year and are siblings, but they are not twins. That’s because they are actually two of a set of triplets. In the case of triplets or larger sibling sets, two of them alone are not called “twins,” which leads to this answer.
