What? No. It says right there on the Wikipedia page that they ate fish and lean meat.
"The traditional diet of the islanders contained sweet potato, green-leafy or root vegetables, and soy foods, such as miso soup, tofu or other soy preparations, occasionally served with small amounts of fish, noodles, or lean meats, all cooked with herbs, spices, and oil."

- ozfive 3y agoAh I didn't see that. My apologies.
