* CatharsisFactor: Any moment that involves humiliating and mocking [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Kanegami]] is bound to become a cathartic moment.



** Related to the previous point, the chapter and episode ''Battle of the Whales'' may come off as uncomfortable for those who vouch for the whales' rights (or Westerners in general who prioritize conserving nature over exploiting them for mere culinary tastes), considering the author's stern stance on defending Japan's whaling activities that are reflected in Yamaoka's intention to justify the whaling activities as a whole. Presumably for this reason, the episode isn't included in the streamed versions because of its politically sensitive topic.

* OvershadowedByControversy: Although ''Oishinbo'' is one of Japan's longest-running manga series with more than 135 million approximate sales (even exceeding other internationally-known series like ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' and ''Manga/Jojo'sBizarreAdventure''), its lack of widespread cultural presence in the international scene resulted in most Westerners and non-Japanese animanga fans usually only remembering the manga for its controversial depiction of the aftermath of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_nuclear_accident 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident]].

** Yamaoka mentions in one story how he would like Japan to resume full-scale commercial whaling, citing that the number of whales is actually increasing instead of decreasing (Even though this is an example of BlatantLies, especially at the time). Due to the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whaling_in_Japan controversial nature]] of whaling activities in Japan (and the topic's sheer divisiveness), his concerns seem more about satisfying his own tastes when compared to his usual position of emphasizing the quality of natural life in Japan.

** Kaibara is so respected as a gourmet that he can excoriate Shiro at a dinner party in front of their host, be a bad winner and sore loser, sneer, scold, and browbeat others, and in general, be a complete jerkwad without anyone batting an eye (although in most cases these happen because they're way too scared to criticize Kaibara in any way). In one particular chapter that ends with Yamaoka losing to Kaibara in a chopstick competition, Yuko even takes Kaibara's side and mocks Shiro's so-called unmannerly chopstick handling: "I'm going to measure your etiquette!" To non-Japanese readers, this comes off as Kurita literally throwing Shiro under the bus for his failure. Curiously (probably because of the callousness of this particular scene), this scene was omitted in the anime version.
