Perspective from Japan on whaling and whale meat, a spot of gourmet news, and monthly updates of whale meat stockpile statistics11/05/2006
Whale meat salad in Shinjuku Takashimaya
"New winter product - the dear old taste - whale salad (with Japanese style onion dressing)".
714 yen per 100 grams (sales tax included) means this is one of the more expensive whale meat options going. The other salads on sale at Takashimaya were only around 250 ~ 400 yen or so per 100g, making this product by far and away the most expensive salad product on offer.
The label at the bottom of the image notes that the product is "healthy, being rich in vitamin A, low in fat and cholesterol", with whale meat being used in preference to beef, pork and chicken, due to it's higher protein and lower cholesterol.

How delicious would be the salad !
Ok,I don't know about Kanto
District,but in Kansai District,I usually see many kinds of whale dish.
In summer,Hankyu Department
Store sold Fin whale meat at 200yen/100g.Naturally it soid out
immediately.
In South Osaka,Kintetsu Department
store sells such whale meats
as Minkewhale ,Bottlenose Whale,
,Sardine Whale,False killer whale.Also I found Fin whale meat(frozen).Though all of them are not usually sold, the fresh whalemeat are sent from Taiji town every day. Needless to say,they are the meat by research　of JAF&ICR.
Yes! we are enjoying whalemeat.
