    Are culinary exports really “loan words”?

    Why not?

    does that make it a loan word and part of the language or are we just using the original name for it?

    I mean, computer like I wrote, is just computer in Japanese. Similarly Tsunami and Honcho are japanese words, loan words, they still refer to their original meaning
