  • A fish vendor in the market area near the train station of Kodaira City, outside Tokyo shows the "wing span" of a flying fish. The fish shop is one of Sayo Ukita's stops on her daily shopping bike ride from her home. As might be expected in an island nation, Japanese families eat a wide variety of seafood: fish, shellfish, and seaweed of all kinds. In any given week, the Ukitas will eat at least a dozen different kinds of fish and shellfish, and three varieties of seaweed. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats) The Ukita family of Kodaira City, Japan, is one of the thirty families featured, with a weeks' worth of food, in the book Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.

  • Toshiko Taira, 87, of Kijoka, Okinawa, Japan. Many Okinawans used to work into their nineties, farming, and weaving bashofu, a fine fabric made from a local banana fiber. Bashofu weaving was a home-based craft, and highly valued, but there are few, if any, weavers producing the fabric at home anymore. The workshop of Toshiko Taira, 87, and her daughter, in the northern Okinawa village of Kijoka, is virtually all that is left of the art. She has been named a national treasure of Japan. She and her daughter are attempting to keep the fine practice alive. Although older generations of Okinawans are still living into their one-hundredth year, some say that the decline of weaving in the home was the beginning of the decline of the lengthy life spans of Okinawans.
