在亚洲国家中，日本的饮食文化中吃肉的历史最短。直到2007年之后，日本家庭鲜肉消费量才超过了鲜鱼消费量。尽管预计人口和经济增长放缓将限制对肉类的需求，但 2020 年家庭肉类消费较 2019 年显着增加，这可能是由于 COVID-19。由于历史背景，日本国内的肉类消费存在地区差异。日本消费者更喜欢国产肉类，并注重肉类的视觉特征，尤其是大理石花纹。信息等外在因素对日本消费者的肉类选择的影响也大于肉类的质量。尽管日本消费者担心肉类的安全性，但适当的检查可以让他们放心，从而恢复他们的购买意愿。动物福利和环境友好型生产等新因素在日本也得到认可。另外值得注意的是，近年来野生动物肉的消费开始增加。
Among Asian countries, Japan has the shortest history of eating meat in its food culture. It was only after 2007 that household fresh meat consumption surpassed fresh fish consumption in Japan. Although it was forecast that slowing population and economic growth would limit the demand for meat, household meat consumption in 2020 increased remarkably from that in 2019, perhaps due to COVID-19. Meat consumption has regional variations within Japan attributable to historical background. Japanese consumers prefer domestically produced meat and focus on the visual characteristics of meat, in particular marbling. Extrinsic factors such as information also contribute to Japanese consumers' meat choices more than the quality of the meat. Although Japanese consumers are concerned about the safety of meat, reassurance from appropriate inspection will restore their purchasing intention. Novel factors such as animal welfare and environment-friendly production are also recognized in Japan. Also notable is that wild animal meat consumption is beginning to increase in recent years.
