The dish that the Japanese like best is, without doubt, sushi. In a survey carried out by NHK in 2007, 73% of the people asked replied "I like sushi" and it stood clearly at the top of the list. In second position was "sashimi" and "grilled fish" came in fifth position. This demonstrates how much the Japanese love fish.
The top 10 includes two dishes that are actually foreign dishes that have been arranged to suit the Japanese palate: ramen and curry. Ramen is Chinese noodles in soup. About 5 billion servings of instant noodles are eaten every year around the world
