What is there to eat in Japan?

I heading to Japan in the fall and I am worried that there on't be anything to eat. I like seafood but cooked. I have never tried anything like fish eggs and the only fish I like salmon and sometimes crab and shrimp. Will I survive?

For open minded people, Japan has to offer an abundance of wonderful dishes and seasonal ingredients around the year, and especially in autumn. There is also a large local variation of dishes and ingredients. One of the best ways to enjoy seasonal, local meal is by staying at a traditional ryokan:

For less open minded people, there are lots of McDonalds and other Western style fast food chains.

The question is more like "what isn't there to eat in Japan?"

Believe it or not, Japanese people eat cooked fish as well. They also eat vegetables, fruit, rice, pasta, pizza, curry, stews, bread, cheese, hamburgers, chicken and as above, there are even McDonalds and Starbucks here- I'm sure you won't starve.

Depending on where exactly you're going, you can find any kind of western food if you so desire. Kind of ruins the excitement of experiencing a new culture but don't worry, you won't starve.

In Tokyo alone, there are restaurants specializing in food from nearly 170 countries around the world.
This doesn't even include the vast culture that is Japanese food.
There are hundreds of specialty stores for ingredients and thousands of fast food shops.

I am sure you will have plenty of food options.

I detest most all Japanese food and can get by here. Kaldi Coffee farm and Costco have foods you are more used to if you plan to cook at home.

Eating out? Salziera (sp?) and Royal Host and McDs, BK, KFC are all places I frequent often.

One sincerely hope that T is joking...or else he/she is a masochist.

I highly recommend you the dish called SUKIYAKI. Great for everybody. It's cooked with vegetables and beef or other meats. You eat it with rice though for roughage and don't forget eat your vegetables.

"Will I survive?"

Yes. More than likely you will not only survive but you will discover a whole new world of delicious (and not necessarily expensive) food.
