Vegetarian food options in Okinawa? (No eggs, no meat)

Hey everyone,

I’m visiting Okinawa soon and I’m strictly vegetarian (no eggs, no meat/seafood). I know Japanese cuisine is pretty heavy on fish and pork, so I was wondering what options I might have while I’m there.

  • Are there any local Okinawan or Japanese dishes that are naturally vegetarian-friendly?
  • How easy is it to find vegetarian meals at convenience stores or supermarkets?
  • Bonus: tips on how to explain “no meat, no fish, no egg” in Japanese so it’s understood clearly.

Would love recommendations from anyone who’s been in a similar situation. Thanks in advance!
