Overseas Network, June 19th. Comprehensive media reports from Japan Asahi TV reported on the 18th that due to the recent depreciation of the yen, Japanese food prices have risen sharply. Due to the limited budget, all schools in Japan have also racked their brains in order to reduce the cost of meals.

Nutritionist Hirano Hirano, a nutritionist at Tokyo, said that although food prices have risen, the school's food costs have not increased. In order to save costs, it can only reduce the weight of high -priced vegetables such as cucumber at the supply meal, change it to other cheap vegetables, and supply 15 grams per person to 10 grams. At the same time, fish and fruits have also been changed to cheaper varieties to deal with food price increases.

Fukushima Prefecture, Japan was also affected by high food prices. In Nanxiangma City, edible oil and seasoning increased significantly. Compared with June 2021, the purchase price of edible oil rose 60%to 70%. In order to save costs, many schools stop using salad sauce and changed to other handmade seasonings on the market. A large amount of oil -fried chicken with oil is also changed to stewed food. The Fukushima County Campus Lunch Association predicts that the prices of many foods will continue to rise.

In the past seven days, the exchange rate of the yen exchanged for the USD has fallen to 135 yen, setting a new low in about 24 years. Kuroda Hoshita, president of the Bank of Japan, acknowledged that the rapid depreciation of the yen was "very unfavorable to the economy." However, due to the influence of the European and American financial markets, the depreciation of the yen is expected to further intensify. (Overseas Network Wu Qian)
