Sushi is an ancient Japanese art popularized as the crown prince of Pacific Rim party food. The main objective of this study was to analyse Japanese consumers' sushi purchasing behaviour and their attitudes towards consumption of sushi. This paper also reports the timeline for sushi businesses in Japan. Data on consumers' sushi consumption habits, demographic characteristics and attitudes towards sushi were collected using structured questionnaires and informal interviews. The sample of consumers included 108 individuals from the Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. Sushi is the most popular traditional food among Japanese consumers. The most common frequency for having sushi meals was between once and less than once a month. Older women were the heaviest consumers, preferring to purchase from supermarkets rather than from specialized sushi bars. Sushi made from tuna was in the highest demand (76%), with salmon as a second choice. The `freshness of fish' and the `special price of sushi' were the most important factors for the final purchasing decision. Sushi consumption patterns in Japan seem to closely reflect the evolution of households' life cycle
