Shokuiku – Food education

The shokuiku system used in Japanese schools teaches children healthy eating habits and ensures a basic knowledge about food. During school meals, children discuss with their teacher the nutritional value of the day’s menu. They also have the chance to learn about the nation’s traditional culinary culture from Washoku professional chefs. Shokuiku starts even earlier in some kindergartens, where children practice growing and cooking food. The system is making a major contribution to promoting physical and mental health.
