Mugi = Barley, and Toro usually designates something fatty.. like belly of a Tuna or Pig... But it can also denote something soft, starchy, and stringy.Mugitoro is a restaurant in Tokyo that serves up some of the best Barley Rice and Mountain Yams I've ever had.

I should also denote anything tororo (sticky and stringy) in Japan is considered somewhat good for you. No, I don't mean cheese or anything us Americans link to the word "stringy".
But veggies like mountain yam, okra, natto, kelp... are all things considered to help digestion and cleanse the innards.
