What kind of food japanese people eat everyday, I say in normal life... We the mexicans cannot live whithout the "chile" and the "tortillas" So what is most common in Japan? Rice? Ramen? What?

ありがとうございます！

Note: I didn't find the translation for Chile and Tortillas I hope you can see them in the Internet...

Without a doubt, the winner of this goes to rice. While surely noodles, miso and stuff are other staple foods, nothing says Japan quite like sticky white rice.

トルティーヤ = torutiiya = tortilla
唐辛子 = tougarashi = chili pepper

As much as I like Chili peppers, I'm ashamed not to have known the Japanese word up until now.

Rice indeed. Noodles probably a close second...

Always a handful of new onigiri flavors each season to prove the point. My favorite flavors lately are 'Meat Doria' onigiri and 'Salmon Pepper'. But the two classic flavors I can never turn down are probably 'ume' (plum) and 'sake' (salmon).
