parts of the world but they are confused 
and sometimes defensive, when they meet 
protests by anti-whaling campaigners. 
After news of Lucky Pierrot's 
whaleburgers spread, the restaurant's 
management received hundreds of angry 
letters and emails. "We're not unique. 
Whale meat is widely available at many 
places in Japan," said Miku Oh, a 
spokesman for Lucky Pierrot. 
Opinion polls show that the majority of 
the Japanese public are against a 
comprehensive whaling ban. A survey of 
5,000 people, conducted by the country's 
Fisheries Agency in 2001, found that 
only 22.6% of those asked were in favour 
of a complete whaling ban, while 39% 
were against a ban. 
In truth much of the meat available in 
Hakodate, and Japan in general, is not 
from whales found in local waters but 
those killed for research in waters as 
far away as Antarctica. The Japanese 
government points out that the 
International Convention for the 
Regulation of Whaling requires that the 
by-products of whale research be 
processed, and that selling whale meat 
fulfils the treaty obligation and helps to 
pay for the cost of the research. 
However, not everyone likes the taste of 
whale meat. After growing up on a diet of 
fast food, not many young people seem to 
like it. "Right now, I'd say most of my 
friends prefer other forms of seafood to 
whale. Especially here in Hakodate, where 
salmon and crab are so widely available," 
said Jun Matsuda, a college student from 
Tokyo who was visiting with his friends. 
"Whale meat is what my parents ate when 
they were young, and they said it wasn't 
very good. I've not seen the whaleburger, 
and I don't think I want one." 
The Guardian Weekly 22/7/2005, page 17 
Decide whether the following statements are True or False according to the text: 
The author enjoyed his whaleburger. 
The author enjoyed his whale sushi. 
Young Japanese do not like whale meat much. 
Older Japanese have good memories of whale meat. 
Most Japanese are in favour of a ban on hunting whales. 
Selling whale meat is against the International Convention for the Regulation of 
Whaling.
