This paper aims to clarify whether the Japanese pattern of food consumption is inherent in Japan or common to other parts of East Asia. The regression analysis and the cluster analysis were employed in this sutdy. The major findings are as follows: The relation between the starch rate of total calories and the national income per capita of respective countries under study, i.e., Japan, the Republic of Korea and Taiwan, are clearly different. The cluster analysis of the food consumption pattern shows that Japan and the Republic of Korea may be considered to belong to the same cluster. The food consumption pattern of the two countries, however, is far from identical. The findings show that the food consumption behavior of Japan is similar to that in other areas of East Asia and that each area has its own characteristic pattern.
