Japanese Noted Foods  Whale Meat  
 Report

If it is called a whale, "the deep-fried marinated whale" eaten by supply of food as a child will be remembered. This is nice. I was looking forward to the "day of the whale" of the meal schedule. It is the canned food of "Whale Ymatoni" which is sometimes seen even now. This was also nice.

It seems that the Minke whale went into the fixed net of Sanriku, and a bid was offered in the fish market in Ishinomaki although seen by the latest news. With a 1t scalpel with a length of 4.5m, the price is 4,650,000 yen. Although noise is made, it sells simply fairly. After carrying out DNA identification of the whale included in a fixed net, sale is accepted if it lets a market pass. (Research whaling is another)



The dish of Kujira who ate these days in the Oshika peninsula is the last. I say [ whether it is nice and ] that it is unsavory, or think that it was such a taste. It seems that there were few portions of meat and there was much fat probably because it was a cheap dish. I think that fishiness was also drifting just for a moment. I want to eat and see a fresh and slightly high-class whale dish at once.

It desires to be able to resume whaling.
(To a whaling opposition faction's person, I'm sorry)


  Japanese : Kujira
Even if there is a pro and con, the commercial whaling is prohibited by IWC (International Whaling Commission).
