Abstract: Nowadays, the “school feeding” program, which started with individual schools as a response to hunger or disaster for children, has developed into an important part of Japanese school activities, and has become an indispensable part of compulsory education. “School feeding” provides a nutritious and balanced lunch with guaranteed food safety for primary and secondary school students who are in the stage of vigorous growth and development, greatly promoting and ensuring the healthy growth of young people. The organic combination of food education and “school feeding” is an important feature of Japan. “School feeding” is not only a carrier and platform for food education, but also a“living textbook”that plays an important role in food education. As the foundation and prerequisite for school food education in China, accelerating the construction of the feeding system is an urgent task. To this end, it is necessary to change our mindset and try to liberate the issue of lunch for primary and secondary school students from their families and society, making it an important part of compulsory education. We also need to improve relevant legal systems and standardize implementation rules. At the same time, we need to think about how to make good use of the platform of school meals to promote food education and develop a food education culture with Chinese characteristics.

Key words: Japanese “school feeding”, school meals, food education, a food education culture with Chinese characteristics
