    Japan has very different cultural customs, diet, and climate. Vegetables such Okra (which are high in sulfur compounds) are commonly eaten in Japan. Pickles, preserves, and pungent fermented foods are seen as healthy.

  • @TomKelly independently of cultural differences, most Japanese and Chinese do not usually wear perfume/deodorant (question's point) and both their diets are different from a western diet. Raw salads are not commonly eaten while fermented and cooked sulfur-rich vegetables lose most of their sulfur compounds (article explaination on "how to prepare" section).

    The question pertains specifically to Japan. Therefore this is irrelevant.

  • @TomKelly the exact same questions asked by the OP could be asked for other countries (e.g. China), that is why I shared my experience... How you blatantly stated that all I shared as irrelevant due to a single point I addressed about a topic that contradicted your thoughts (diet) shows a great deal of your mindset... Glad you are vegetarian btw (honestly).

    @CPHPython yes, they could be asked about other countries, such as China. And this would be a very good answer if the questions had been asked about China. But they weren't. They were asked about Japan, and your answer has absolutely nothing to do with Japan.
