I always knew it as japanese radish ,they do get really big .A couple 
foot long . A family friend was Japanese ,  she would always grate them 
and serve in soy sauce . Hopefully next vacation will be to visit her 
and get some real oriental food !
  I have seen them in seed catalogs before for gardening ,buy not in 
large quanity . Ivan
