Article filled with problems

[edit]

I am Japanese. "Chinmi" is Japanese for "delicacy" and the word is not limited to Japanese food. Caviar and fois gras are "chinmi". The definition pushed in the article is wrong, and seems to be taken from bad clickbait foreign blogs that made up a fake definition. The 珍 in chinmi signifies that the food has to be rare and hard to obtain or not commonly eaten. Squid nankotsu and salmon are not chinmi. Furthermore, this article falsely claims that squid nankotsu is from Hokkaido when it is eaten all over Japan, and in fact other parts of Asia as well. There are other problem entries on the list, like locust tsukudani is not chinmi, it is goudo-ryouri.

If you are going to list items under "chinmi" then many of them should not be there. It would be better to change the article title to "Japanese delicacies" if you are going to push a western-centric view of what is a delicacy instead of listing what is actually considered chinmi. 27.84.15.217 (talk) 22:09, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
