It is important to study traditional Japanese food in festivals which view health as being expressed in the model for dietary life peculiar to the Japanese. Therefore, it is necessary that we understand the actual conditions under which Japanese food in customs and festivals have been transmitted from generation to generation. This study was made to characterise how the Japanese food used in customs and festivals had been transmitted from generation to generation, in a farming mountain village in the north of Okayama Prefecture, where the traditional food culture had developed. Then, in order to analyse the changes in Japanese food in the customs, the history of the customs was researched by hearing from informants and observers in the rural community named Chuka-son, Maniwa-gun. The most typical six dishes that should be passed on to later generations were found, based on the results of the investigation. These dishes were tested for palatability by housewives living in those village and female students. Both the housewives and the female students had a strong liking for the local healthy dish Hiruzen- Okowa. The traditional foods such as Happosai using Sansai are suggested to be well received at events and at festivals, depending on the cooking person in charge, the way of cooking, and the careful consideration of health matters.
