Question for japanese people?

Question:

Have you ever eaten dolphin? Is it common?

first of all, I am not a crazy animal rights activist. I'm just trying to write a research paper and i need that information.

I have already asked two exchange students ( one from tokyo and one from okinawa) and they said " Eat dolphins?? hahaha" "lol, noooo we don't eat dolphins ^^"

I will NOT judge you for your answer, i'm just trying to collect a statistic.

Answer:

i have eaten horse meat sashimi, weird, i have eaten canned whale meat not my taste, dolphin like flipper, i never had the opportunity.
