What is the foreign food in Japan?

In fact, Japanese foreign food is a kind of exotic food invented by the Japanese, which is not traditional Japanese food, but completely conforms to Japanese tastes, not foreigners' tastes. Japanese foreign food developed with the Meiji Restoration. Before the Meiji Restoration, Japanese people did not eat meat. Japan is a very strange country. They don't eat meat from the emperor to the common people. This is one of the reasons why they are short. During the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese emperor saw the difference between Japan and foreigners, so he forced all Chinese people to eat meat.

In this period, beef began to be popularized all over the country, which laid a certain foundation for the later development of foreign food. There is a famous foreign food in Japan called Neapolitan spaghetti. This spaghetti seems to be full of Italian style, but it is actually the creation of a Japanese chef. That was during World War II, when Japan was defeated and the United States occupied Japan. Some American soldiers would mix canned meat and pasta to save trouble. So, according to this, the Japanese invented a unique Neapolitan spaghetti mixed with many ingredients, which was in line with the Japanese taste.

In many Japanese cartoons, TV series and movies, we can see various kinds of delicious food, such as coke cakes, egg-wrapped rice, fried pork chops, hamburger meat, curry and so on. Coke cake has nothing to do with coke. It is a kind of food mixed with mashed potatoes, onions, meat stuffing and then fried. The same is true for fried pork chops, but unlike coke cakes, fried pork chops are slightly greasy, so Japanese people usually eat them with radish paste and grapefruit sauce.

Hamburger meat and Japanese curry are also original creations of the Japanese. Japanese curry is different from Indian curry in its pungent and irritating nature, while Japanese curry actually has some sweetness, and its taste is quite soft, which is more suitable for Japanese people who don't like spicy taste. In a word, Japanese foreign food is a kind of exotic food that conforms to Japanese tastes and has been improved by Japanese chefs.
