From quora answer (Korean user)
Japanese were nicknamed as tulips by Chinese. Not only because like kimchi consumed by Koreans, Japanese eat piclked tulip for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but described the Japanese also looked like a tulip.
Japanese didn't drink much milk until the Meiji emperor encouraged his citizens to drink more milk . Most of their protein were from beans, tofu, and fish. Even eggs were expensive.
Before WW2, the average height of a Japanese male was only 5 ft 3 inches and weight 120 lbs. ( 1.55 m and 55 kgs. As Chinese are concerned, even the southern Chinese were averaged at 1.65m (5 ft 6)and the northern Chinese even taller.
