It has long been known that Japanese people tend to live longer than most other people on Earth. One of the explanations for this is their diet. In Japan, staple dietary items include fish, rice and vegetables. Fish provides people with a regular source of protein. But unlike many red meats, it also has a low fat content. Rice and vegetables further add to the healthiness of the Japanese diet by providing nutrients and carbohydrates. In recent years, Japanese cuisine has become more popular in Europe and North America. Ten years ago, sushi restaurants were still a rarity in many European and American cities. Today, there are sushi restaurants in most communities in major cities such as London, Paris, Berlin, New York, Toronto and Montréal. Even in small cities, most Europeans and North Americans can now get their daily fill of healthy Japanese cuisine by visiting a local restaurant. Given that obesity and poor eating habits continue to be a problem in countries throughout Europe and North America, the introduction of Japanese cuisine can only be seen in a positive light.
