Sometimes there are words that are usually written in katakana are native Japanese words. Although those are mostly animals and such things, but I guess maybe there are some foods? I can't think of anything off the top of my head but it doesn't seem unlikely. Fun Fact: ラッコ and トナカイ are both Ainu words originally. Actually 昆布 comes from the Ainu word "konp" but of course they don't get credit for it. I knew that! Ainu should get more credit. Lots of other words that came to Japan from other languages a long time ago have kanji too, even if it's not used all that often. Like 南瓜(かぼちゃ).
