The 1996 numbers are given as perentages of "weight" & not "calories" and are often misrepresented.
The study I listed are both actual grams & percentages of calories & lists the figures for mainland Japan and for Okinawa seperately.

The 6% is of total calories. It's a relatively small amount.

In Health,
Jeff
