I always thought that Japanese eat just rice and nothing more. The idea surely comes from the movies about Japan, showing them eating rice and drinking green tea. I left in Japan some monthes ago because of my conference and see this original country in all its beauty.
There is a wide range of national cuisine. First of all they can eat a soup on the breakfast, named Miso soup. It contains vegetables, sardines and miso paste, that is sold in every shop. This soup and rice are the traditional dish in Japan and they are so tasty!
The other thing I liked the most is the sea food. They have shellfish, octopus, squid, crab, lobster, shrimp, whale, seaweed and many others I even don't know. There is a poisoned fish, unfortunately forgot its name, that is very tasty. Every year a lot of people die because of incorrect preparing it. You see, to savour the unforgettable fish taste you should die. Mama mia! Never!
Japan is also not for vegetarians. Even some Buddists eat meat. Beaf, pork and chicken are very popular in Japan. I heard that some even eat dogs and rats, but I don't know it is true or not.
So, to sum up, Japan is not only rice and tea, it is also an unusual cuisine, original culture and birthplace of curiosities, but this is another story, yet. Cheers!
