How does the location of Japan affect what they can grow? How does this affect their food traditions? *

Japanese food was influenced by China and Korea due to the geographical proximity. Traditional food is an important aspect of the culture and it is considered a world heritage. Thus, a traditional meal is not only aiming for the taste, but also aiming to protect the nature and transmit knowledge to future generations. The climate in Japan varies considerably, which allowed each city to develop their own traditional dishes representing the area. This has encouraged culinary tourism, where people travel throughout Japan to experience different flavours. Culinary tourism benefited Japanese culture and economy by supporting local villages and smaller communities.

A convenient way to experience dishes from different regions, is by buying ekiben (lunch boxes sold at the train stations) while riding the train from one city to another. Seasonal food is important for society, because the diet is based on each season of the year. To stay healthy throughout the year, Japanese children learn important values and skills such as cooperation, teamwork and responsibility in their school lunches during elementary school. Bento boxes (lunch boxes) influenced, to some extent, the personality of Japanese children either by helping them to socialize easier with their classmates or excluded them from a group. A meal in Japan is very important to society, because there is more to just eating the food; there are several rules and etiquettes to follow. A meal in Japanese society goes beyond food, because through a meal people can socialize, build stronger bonds, cooperate, work in teams and help society to develop. It is also a way to thank gods in rituals.

Traditional food in modern society is very important to keep the culture. Without these traditions and all the varieties of foods available in Japan, the Japanese culture would probably not be the same as it is today.
