Abstract

Almost everywhere in the world, from ancient times, people have been consuming marine algae. The Chinese, the Japanese, the Filipinos and the Hawaiians consider seaweed a food of great delicacy and have been using it in their diets for centuries. Archaeological research has shown that the Japanese have been eating seaweed for more than 10,000 years. In Japan and in parts of Southeast Asia, seaweed is consumed raw, with salads or with cooked vegetables. The Japanese refer to seaweed as ‘sea vegetables’.
