I read Nobuo Harada ‘Rekishino nakano Kome to Niku’ (Heibonsha.)
He asks why kome (rice) has been respected as the precious food in the course of Japanese history?
And why niku (meat) was stopped eating at some point in the history by contrast?
He tries to describe Japanese old class systems from the view of kome and niku.
Satsuki is trimmed.
