Jan 25, 2020 at 5:15 comment added Tom Kelly @CPHPython your experience is valid and relevant for questions about China. However you cannot generalise like this for East Asian countries. They’re very different and tourists from mainland China are particularly disruptive in Japan (at least according to Japanese media) due to these differences. This question specifically addresses Japan. I suggest you familiarise yourself with StackExchange policies rather than taking this personally.
Jan 23, 2020 at 16:02 comment added Chris H @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.

Jan 22, 2020 at 16:12 comment added CPHPython @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).
Jan 22, 2020 at 15:52 comment added Tom Kelly The question pertains specifically to Japan. Therefore this is irrelevant.
Jan 22, 2020 at 15:20 comment added CPHPython @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).
Jan 22, 2020 at 14:36 comment added Tom Kelly 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.
