How did the Meiji Restoration change the basic necessities of Japanese people from head to toe?

Before the Meiji Restoration, Japan's basic necessities of life were based on traditional culture. However, after knowing the satellite, it is different. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan began to learn from the West. Western advanced cultural knowledge, such as light bulbs, suits and Lolita dresses, was all learned from the West at that time, even with education.

Besides, before the Meiji Restoration, Buddhism believed in religion and did not eat meat, so the system was definitely not good. For a long time before the Meiji Restoration, due to the influence of Buddhist tradition, most Japanese people were vegetarian, hardly ate beef, and even regarded beef as unclean. In addition, Japan's geographical environment is rich in mountains and rivers, with little arable land and poor products. Ordinary people only have three meals a day, rice, pickles and miso soup, which is very unimaginative.

Therefore, as a man's dignity is compared with others, seeing that he is short and frustrated, he will definitely feel inferior, and his inferiority will change, which will directly lead to malnutrition and stunting in Japan. The average height of men is only 1.6 meters. Originally, everyone was not tall and could not feel the gap. However, when "black ships came to sail", Japan had more and more contacts with western countries, and the Japanese finally felt petite in front of big Europeans and Americans, and even felt inferior for it. "You are what you eat." The Japanese realized that the height of Europeans must have a lot to do with their eating habits, so they changed their vegetarian habits and began to drink milk and eat beef.

Emperor Meiji was the first emperor in the Japanese royal family to like beef. In order to make his subjects have strong physique and proud height, he took the lead in drinking milk and eating beef. The height of Emperor Meiji also reached 168cm, and he was considered to be the best of all emperors.

If the day before Meiji Restoration was a low-quality China version from Chinese studies, then Japan is now a low-quality Western version learned from its daughter-in-law. I think Emperor Meiji is still very strong.
